Man, those people must've good trust in their parents if they can't trust others with parenting their children.

Someone please think of the children!

What's your take on this? Will this work with a Guy Fawkes mask?

Obviously these are just lies and/or rumors taken way out of context. Anyone can say anything these days. Take everything you hear with a grain of salt. A single YT video with a million views does NOT make it credible.

The ESRB itself has distanced away from its rumors:

Obviously, even if it tried, it would not work. At all.
you always "leak" info to test the waters, while officially denying. Watch it, let it make the rounds and sink in, then either tiptoe, "pulse", or incorporate it via something else. Very straightforward. Why anyone denies this obvious pattern at this point is beyond me.

Everyone has a smartphone. Everyone basically has a facebook. Other than that, there's some sort of photo ID on record. Of course it would work. It's already practically in place already.

I deleted my post after doing a little more research, seems the news are a little more credible than I thought I was, but since you brought it back - the whole thing, thankfully, is just an idea in the very beginning stages.

I do not think it will work. There will be a lot of pushback, no matter for what purpose it is used.

I definitely do not condone making it mandatory, if that is eventually what they are looking for. Even for mature games.

It is the parents' responsibility to prevent their kids from getting their hands into such games.

Funny how the West preaches against China and hates their systems yet adopt their systems.
Right... The funny thing is that china has no tech. All the CCTV and now they have the ability to scan your finger so that every time you touch a phone they can scan your finger but all this tech is imported.
Finally! Biden was save us from Cyber-Cornpop!
yep fingerprint scanning is bad

everytime the tracked subject opens their phone or presses the power button on pc equipped with the scanner you can now create a traceable log of loacation and who is using device

saw this one coming with iphone years ago, we are not animals for your scientific studies to be tracked and collared

we have human rights
wtf, so we have to spend more money buying a webcam/laptop with a webcam just to play the games I paid for??

first of all it is a very stupid and bad idea that has no place in a society that puts any value on privacy.

secondly, i assume it will be very easy to spoof anyway, either with a literal mask (printed paper if nothing else).
or, without specially authorized hardware, just by feeding a virtual signal into the camera input so to speak, and then either just giving it a clip of a random hollywood actor or by running your own camera through a face filter before feeding it to the camera input.

i am sure someone has already written a paper on this stuff.

I find this especially questionable, since the scanner is usually in a way to cradle the index finger when the phone is held. I appreciate the extra grip, but I don't like the scanning, hence I cover the scanner.

Micro$oft requires OEMs to install webcams on their integrated devices, if they want to sell them with Windows 11.

So a perfect fit for the U.S.

Thats a simple fix of requiring every monitor to come with a built in camera.
