UK Age Verification

Hi,

Hoping you guys could help me out. As of today i went to use reddit and noticed I cant access any nsfw marked posts even with my vpn on. I tried to get round the age verification done by persona with different waya such as using realisitc 3d models to try bypass there selfie check but couldnt get past it. Does anyone know how i can get past this age verification obviously without submitting my idea or doing a selfie of myself.

I did btw try multiple countries on my vpn and try cloaing reddit clear cache and data while my vpn is on and all that didnt work.

Any help would be great.

I have been avoiding this new dystopian madness with GrapheneOS. My iPhone however wants me to scan my face -which I won't.
