The question is prompted by the age verification app that the EU has just presented.
Some EU countries want to ban social media for young people. If that were to happen, what then?

Age verification aside, the likelihood is that eventually the Threadiverse, if it grows, will change as to require manual approval of new instances anyway just on a pure spam issue and abuse level.
Maybe, but letting a new instance federate doesn’t create a bigger abuse risk than allowing account creation. Going through a compliance checklist takes more effort.
It might split the Fediverse in compliant and non-compliant, where compliant servers don’t talk to the others.
I mean I don’t see how it’s plausible how government regulatory bodies even go to the level of trying to micromanage a network that had 40k monthly visitors tbh
