Mandatory age checks will be enforced from November 12, 2025

I just woke up in Italy on that date, and had not heard about this, so I tried a couple of obvious sites and no verification. I even tried a couple from their posted list and nothing. (Also, some domain names I didn't expect to be typing)

Now what? Will they attempt to block those sites?
