Maybe age assurance should be in the display. The display's camera has to verify the age of the viewer to display adult content.
That might be simpler. Estimating age with a camera is already common in China. Cameras are cheap, and displays now probably have enough processing power to do it locally.

Sorry, but due to age assurance laws we can no longer provide ELI5 explanations. Best we can do is explain it to you like it's your 18th birthday.
Go and play outside.

Kids have already found that drawing a false mustache on themself works to defeat age checks using a camera.
