For an implementation to work, it should: * Let the service know that the user is an adult by providing a verifiable proof of adulthood (eg. A proof that’s signed by a trusted authority/government) * Not let the service know any other information about the user besides what they already learn through http or TCP/IP *

No, they invented mastodon. Which is the thing they’re adjusting.
They didn’t invent HTTP either, which they’re not claiming ownership of by using it in mastodon.
