California AB 1043 signed. Mandatory os-level, device-level, app store, and even developer-required age verification for all computing devices.
Edit: altered title from “ID check” to “Age Verification check”



I apologize for this being posted about 2 weeks after the bill was signed, was going through my usual methods of checking news and new laws and found this.
Now terminals will read: “GNU/Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and contains code known by the State of California to cause cancer or other reproductive harm.” /j
i once compiled C code and now have finger cancer
