Theres talk of a new law in California that requires operating systems to verify the users’ age. This would be a way of implementing that in Linux distros
And yet those laws are definitely going to go to court and haven’t been passed yet even, so why the eagerness to comply???
They have been passed and will be enforced in like 2 years. They may be challenged, but it's not a guarantee that a court would oppose it.
The Colorado law is still under consideration and has only gone through the senate. https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/SB26-051
California is less than a year as it goes into effect this upcoming January 2027.
I always said systemd was trying to become the entire operating system
i'm looking forward to package-managerd and systemd-install
