My daughter tried to install some game that required a certain age, so they send me an email asking for my approval. It included a link for me to verify my age by uploading a photo. I never had to verify my age in any way beforehand on that account.

My daughter could've easily cheated by using a different account and snapping any photo in the family album or downloading a picture.

What's the point anyway.

The point isn't age verification, the point is being able to say "look, we have an age verification step, we're not liable"
