there’s not a system in place to assign them responsibility regarding the child accessing places it should not (if we do really think they should not).
That’s what this law does. It provides a system (age attestation) and penalties for violating it.
No, this law is not placing penalties on the parents. It’s placing them on the OS distributors.
If you come to my house and get sufficient proof that my child is having an account in a web service it should not, and you go to the police with it, do you think they would punish me with a fine or anything? (and you don’t even need any sort of special authentication technology for “age attestation” to start penalizing that, btw)
That law just says “A person that violates this title[…]”. Which is vague. But it appears to me that this would include the parent.
It is also something that only athe AG can bring charges for. This won’t be something that police are getting out their ticket books for. And if we don’t like how the AG is handling it, we can try to recall them.
