Age verification now required for DNS resolution

In anticipation various age verification legislation bills, both here in Canada and in the US, we’ve made the decision to unilaterally and proactively enforce age verification at the DNS resolution level across all services.
We’ve partnered with Palantir to provide fast ID/KYC services which can verify your age through a simple selfie.
Effective immediately, when you enter your DNS settings into the easyDNS member panel, you will be prompted to “Verify ID/Age” before committing your new zone.
In under 90 seconds you will be age verified and your DNS settings will begin propagating across our global fleet of anycast nameservers.
ID/Age verification remains in place until you change your DNS settings, or until your zone TTL expires – so set those minimums out longer and back off your dynamic DNS updates if you want to reduce the number of ID/Age verification operations.
