I made an extension that bypasses online age verification

To show my stance towards online age verification, I made a small (literally, less than 10 kilobytes) add-on that will completely skip ageverif.net’s verification prompt. (Only that site (for now?))

With more and more data breaches going on it’s important to protect yourself by not sharing unnecessary data, and to show how broken some age verification platforms are!

It’s #opensource too! https://github.com/helloyanis/agechecker.net-bypass (more info on why I do it is in the readme)

    Hosted on github, which is owned by Micro$lop. One of the companies who are pushing this age verifying crap (and has ties with Peter Thiel). Is it a good idea to host it there?

      Along those lines I have always though of the fact you can download a windows script from github to active windows and/or debloat it.
