I don't see how Mississippi or the UK think they can issue laws on sites hosted outside their jurisdiction. That's just mind boggling. The onus is on the state to provide age verification, or make their ISPs do it.
Sorry, the sort of individualism you speak of only applies to opting out of vaccines and praying to jeebus in the classroom.
Watch the whole world go "ahaha age verification go brrrrr" in the next months/years, and we'll talk again. I'm particularly baffled at the EU that was all "privacy friendly, consumer first" until a handful of month ago.
