Even Skype, which is free (but not as "public" for everything), and other video/audio hangout-like services implement such age restrictions in compliance with the laws that exist for various countries.

Re: Google Hangouts
The issue with Google Hangouts is that they have an age limit for the younger members of who are the youth, and life blood of ubuntu. I did discuss this issue before I left.
