Strange rules and no country mentioned. I'm guessing it's about the USA.

[–] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Most countries prohibit sales of alcohol to minors, and when in doubt, the seller must ask for a form of ID. In the US, this is almost always a driver's license, since there's no national id card and state id isn't mandatory AFAIK - people will use that though if they don't have a driver's license for some reason.

Do you guys have some kind of app to verify your age that can be used in most stores?

No. I'd say that we should have that, but knowing our track record for such things it would probably be actively harmful and cost more than it's worth.

Maybe some states do have that, idk. Not mine though. That's the biggest issue, each state having their own separate system for ID.

"REAL ID" was an attempt to form a national standard and it's been a total clusterfuck with basically no benefit to the average person, except now you can't fly without one.

(You actually can get a sort of digital version of REAL ID after paying a $45 "fuck you" fee, but it only works at the TSA checkpoints at the airport, using their app, which also seems like a fucking terrible idea. I will continue to print my paper boarding passes and go through security with my phone turned off and placed inside a verified-working Faraday bag.)

In the US you can purchase alcohol with the use of a government issued ID card, drivers license, passport, or active duty military ID as all are government issued IDs which display ones age.

I don't know, man. Based on the language of the meme and the triangle on the guy's shirt, at first I thought of Bermuda.
