I like trophies/achievements, they motivate me to do outside of the box things I wouldn’t do otherwise and appreciate games more when done right. They’re never anything to take that seriously. I never understand why people care about stat padding arbitrary profile metrics like this.
All of these verifications are dumb. My Xbox account is almost 18 years old so why should I need to do this. And all of these people that think this will do anything are naive.
These don’t fix the problems they were set out to fix, it’s been proven how easy this stuff is to circumvent to the point pre teens can get around it within a few minutes. All it does is create unnecessary massive data privacy concerns by giving your most valuable information to these companies, which have been breached in the past and now they contain even more information attackers are more encouraged to do so.
Governments are not parents and parents are not governments. They cannot substitute for poor and lazy parenting in a day and age it’s so easy to monitor everything your child does.
