For those interested on the question of age verification and GNU/Linux: be aware that Systemd v261-rc1 was recently released. It now implements an optional
birth datefield in the JSON user database (see second item under “Other changes”).The implementation of this field was prompted by age-verification or -attestation laws.
It always starts off as optional as a form of normalization…Then gradually the boundaries are pushed until we get in a worse situation. So, I won’t accept any form of age verification, optional or otherwise.
Too true. And good on you.
