WASHINGTON — The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has denied approval to three age verification companies that were seeking to implement a biometrics solution to meet Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) requirements.

The four FTC commissioners voted unanimously to reject the application jointly submitted last June by Yoti, the Entertainment Software Rating Board and SuperAwesome. 

The companies’ “Privacy-Protective Facial Age Estimation” system would “analyze the geometry of a user’s face to confirm the person is an adult and can access certain content,” tech law news site NextGov reported.

“The FTC confirmed that 354 comments raised concerns with the software’s data collection and storage capabilities, particularly in regards to generating deepfake content, along with other privacy violations.”

Yoti also submitted the same biometric model to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST); that evaluation and report are forthcoming.

The FTC left open the possibility of revisiting the technology and the rejected application, stating that it expects that the NIST report “will materially assist the Commission, and the public, in better understanding age verification technologies.” 

Evan Greer, of digital rights group Fight for the Future, called the rejection of the AV companies’ application “another great move from the FTC.”

“A world where you get your face scanned to access a website is not a safer world,” Greer posted on X.com. “There is no ‘privacy protective’ way to scan people’s faces in order to estimate their age.”

XBIZ has reached out to Yoti for comment.

NEW YORK — Pleasure product manufacturer MysteryVibe has joined forces with health care communications agency Havas Lynx to launch a new “Happy Menopause” ad campaign calling on post-menopausal women to prioritize their sexual well-being.

A “Happy Menopause” billboard in central Manhattan features MysteryVibe’s FDA-approved Crescendo 2 device and declares, “Orgasm now comes with a medical prescription.”

In conjunction with the billboard, the campaign features educational information endorsed by reproductive scientist and professor Joyce Harper.

MysteryVibe’s CEO and co-founder, Soumyadip Rakshit, said, “Not only are we honored to support a campaign that enables women to overcome taboos around menopause, we know that discomfort shouldn’t be normalized.”

Havas Lynx SVP and Director of Planning Tash Loeb Mills added, “Women’s sexual well-being and pleasure remains a whispered subject — especially when you add menopause into the mix. We’ve had enough of it, and what better way to get people talking, than with a massive orgasm. That’s what everyone wants, after all!”
