How could digitial age verification be possibly implemented with privacy in mind? (self.programming)

Many might've seen the Australian ban of social media for <16 y.o with no idea of how to implement it. There have been mentions of "double blind age verification", but I can't find any information on it.

Out of curiosity, how would you implement this with privacy in mind if you really had to?

This isn't as limiting as it seems at first glance though. Sending pictures of a true one time pad cipher doesn't rely on the security of the transport or the camera. From there you can choose to make a compromise of convenience and get to things like Private key cryptography where the ciphers are done via basic xor arithmetic you can do by hand.
