California AB 1043 signed. Mandatory os-level, device-level, app store, and even developer-required age verification for all computing devices.
Edit: altered title from “ID check” to “Age Verification check”
If it does that, sure. It would create penalties at least.
You wouldn’t need another identifier though. On your 16th birthday, for example, your age range changes from <16 to >16. If the application checked every day and recorded it, then they would then know your birthday. The bins are larger, but switching bins is by the day. It doesn’t matter how large the bins are at that point.
