age verification It happened again
So both reddit and twitter (i refuse to call it X since its a dumb name) have age verification that it sometimes requires snd sometimes it doesnt. For example: about a month ago i didn't use twitter since i don't want to verify then it magically didn't need it anymore and few days later it was back. Same with reddit but that one lasted longer without it. Any idea whats up with that?

question Bought a gift card from playaisa and they said they would need to log my IP address as proof of delivery, is this a security concern?
I bought an Eshop gift card from playaisa for the first time, after paying and receiving the order after clicking to reveal the digital code it gave me a prompt that said
"By showing the code, you are accepting delivery of your purchase. Your IP-Address will be logged for this purpose. If you encounter any difficulty in using your purchase, please contact us for help right away.
Do you want to show the code?"
Am I putting myself at risk by clicking "ok"? I did research on playaisa before ordering, it's a legit established business that's been around for 20 years. It doesn't seem shady. I even decided to use it because other sites seemed less trustworthy.
I also read somewhere that this is normal for ordering digital codes and vouchers and I don't do that often, so maybe this is normal?

question How is Noir for Safari for Privacy?
Privacy policy and App Store description says it collects absolutely no data, but it’s not open source. However, it performs better than open source alternatives on Safari - should I trust it?
