Per the very first reply on their thread discussing it in their forums, which I linked directly to for the post title:
We’ll NEVER require any verification or identification from the user.
However, what’s gonna happen should the attempts to age-gate the XDG portal screw over alt-init distros like Artix too? My guess is maybe they start blocking regions which force age gating like Arch Linux 32 is doing.
Just age gate the download. If it’s just the “enter your bday” it might be a good way to wiggle past this nonsense for a while
Unfortunately that also wouldn’t satisfy the requirements put in place by several operating system level age verification laws.
Well I guess the solution is to move away from those jurisdictions who have gone insane.
