So if you want to protect your kids from adult rated content, and you live in California, you need to buy a propietary system. Which make sure data collectors get to know all about them, and therefore doesn’t protect them… But am I the only one to see the commercial argument about to be used by MS, Apple, and others?

Their websites and services will ask for age verification and Linux will not provide it.
Therefore Linux systems will be barred from using online services. You will need a proprietary spyware OS in order to continue banking, citizen. Please drink a verification can to continue.
There’s nothing preventing Linux from giving online services a random age. Being exempt from the law just means we don’t have to implement real age verification.

Nothing yet. Just give it a year or three before those age attestations given to websites have to be cryptographically signed by a corp.
