WTF is this?
Had my VPN location set to the Netherlands and now X wants me to verify my age? To watch a video of someone spending sats at a rural shop in Kenya?
Turned VPN off, and restriction is gone.

Wierd I don’t think restrictions are set yet in the Netherlands. Maybe a bug ?
I think you misspelled feature
Welcome to the EU 😅
Sats spending is only for capable adults that’s why!
🙄
You must be part of a randomly selected trial group. I wouldn't be surprised if X applies this across all jurisdictions regardless of the laws.
Sounds plausible.
But it’s bad throughout. I fear that many more sites will follow in blocking VPNs. Reddit for instance blocks them already.
Thankfully Reddit still works with it's onion address.
Wow thanks for the info, I've been off reddit for years since they blocked VPNs and never bothered to check for an onion

That's how EU has been imposing their regulatory regime across different jurisdictions.
Companies tend to apply the most restrictive set of regulations they face across the board to homogenize processes and reduce the burden of complying with multiple regulatory regimes.
Yeah just to see if people do it.
Estimates your age …lol…

Holanda também está sob ataque de uma ditadura internacional. A NWO.
Yes, this is normal. It sucks, but it's normal.
👍🏻
@theNetherlands Any questions for this witness?
Welcome To The New World Order 💀
When you have the option best switch the country to connect via VPN. At least when you need privacy 😉
Currently most such rules exist in some countries and in others not. So it is kind of an annoying searching game.
