So that means that kids can't buy computers?
Can't buy a cheap used raspberry pi or old laptop/desktop in order to set up as a server?
I don't think there would be any difficulty with a kid setting up a computer, as in most juristictions the parents are responsible for their childrens' actions until they are adults themselves. So the oarents would still be responsible for what the kid did with the computer in the same way they often are now.
So then the law is pointless as implemented, since parents can already do this. Which leads to the conclusion that there must be some other motivation
Not really, please see my response to towerful's sibling comment to save me duplicating it.
So these "os reporting age bands" laws are useless then.
Cause either the parents are being responsible, at which point there are many parental tools for network and device control.
Or they aren't being responsible, and the kid can easily bypass it or just buy their own device.
