OS vendors have been mandated to request use age brackets since late 2025, but Linux systems could be exempt if this amendment bill is enforced.

Sorry, “lawmaker”, but I do not believe you learned well anything about human law at all.
It feels like that “lawmaker” skipped the day they taught the absolute basics of legal frameworks and human rights.
Their, sorry, indeed “childish” attitude so much inadequate… not a single actually mature person gets I know, realizing that these policy/law proposals are absolute freaking trainwrecks of legal incompetence and pure sorrow, creating colossal disasters… in the human history…
So much human time, code, updates… nerves… worries… is freaking wasted… and for what? To select 1970-01-01 in the field and forget?
I hope you, the “nonsense-maker”, will find peace… once you get yours 60 years old reached…
I think it is much more nefarious than that. All of these age verification laws are tech companies wanting more data from users, so they pay politicians to enact the laws with spurious “won’t somebody think of the children” excuses.
Absolutely no one is fooled; especially within Linux community.
There is always an excuse. At this point, why bother even reading the excuse. Any excuse is a childish joke and not worthy of even being entertained.
Whichever coders grabbed their ankles should be forever ostracized.
systemd is persona non grata.
