Google Wallet Now Uses Zero-Knowledge Proofs to Verify Your Age—Because Big Tech Totally Needs More of Your Data
Google just weaponized cryptography to let you prove you’re over 18—without revealing your birthdate. Zero-knowledge proofs hit mainstream wallets, and honestly? It’s about damn time.
The tech cuts through regulatory red tape while keeping your personal data locked down. No more handing over your driver’s license just to buy a rated-R movie ticket.
Of course, Wall Street will find a way to tokenize this into some creepy ’age-verification-as-a-service’ revenue stream by Q3. Stay vigilant.
