Highly doubtful about their "reluctance"....

No reason to be. All that age verification requirements do is create extra cost for them. They've got the data already (or at least a close enough estimate) just not in a way that satisfies this idiotic law.

Of course they're reluctant. All these laws do are add costs and hassle. The additional lawyer fees alone must be astronomical.

Yeah but theses regulatory burdens can only be born by mega-corporations so even though it is extra work for them, it still benefits them.
