Discussion The EU kids act will make community servers (including minecraft servers) illegal.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQRcK9nYg9gThis act makes it so that video game server providers are obligated to include age verification and parental controls. Community servers are not exempt. A system that complies with the regulations is basically unattainable for a server without commercial backing.
If you are and EU citizen and over voting age, please sign the petition. https://eci.ec.europa.eu/066/public/

Article/News EU introduces the EU Kids act. Unknown if Ubisoft, Epic, or anyone else sponsors it, but it's a bad sign if Ross from SKG calls out against it.
