I really wish they would just accept digital id’s from apple wallets for age verification without providing any identifying information somehow.

It would be nice if we could use these digital wallets as a framework for all these things, annonymously.

This can be done and it's called a zero knowledge proof (ZKP) in cryptography. And it's starting to be used in crypto wallets to verify humanity.

Yeah, today I logged into Claude on my iPhone and it asked my approval for Apple to validate that my age range was “Adult” without providing any additional information.

Why can’t this be used everywhere we are being asked to validate our age like adult websites/discord/etc?

I think I've been waiting since the 90s hoping somebody will figure out how to make this a real thing (or was it the early 2000s?)

As I recall it seemed to be just one guy, David Chaum, who did so much to show how so many of these things could work, but the rest of us have somehow managed to do very little with his ideas. What are we missing?
