It is unworkable and the last attempt at this was delayed and them scapped because it was a privacy and legal nightmare.
But I do want to say the age verification stuff does not come in to force for most sites until around July (that if its not delayed) but adult sites may have to enforce it starting around the 17th of January. The whole thing is a mess.
