More “feel good” legislation that has no basis in reality. They obviously do not actually intend to enforce this for corporations because it would shut down modern software development and data centers overnight. Imagine spinning up a docker container or a VM with accounts created. Suddenly you’re violating the law because there’s no age attestation. Nor should there be.
If they want this to actually fly, they should be more targeted in their legislation, but that would require they actually know what they’re fucking talking about.
This is obviously targeted at individuals to “protect” them. Great. No thank you.
