These old farts couldn't even sign in to Facebook without technical support. Do you think they understand even a glimmer of the technical ramifications of their proposed law? Usually when laws like this fail for technical reasons, they try to compensate the embarrassment by hammering harder with the penalties.

They know exactly how to do it. They can just hire people on this board, and in two years you'll barely remember when you could visit a website without an Apple/Android phone linked to your Real ID.

Signing in is still relatively easy. What takes a bit more skill is to get rid of the account once you no longer want it.
