So, OS-level age-gating is going federal, which will effectively kill your rights to device ownership and what’s left of free speech and expression.

Enjoy your free speech while you still have it because this is a clear attempt to erase that right.

SOPA never died, it just went into hiding until time to reemerge, and now’s that time, this is basically SOPA in a save the kids trenchcoat.

    Canadian here. If I can’t find a Linux distro that will not comply with this bullshit law, I’ll use my GrapheneOS phone and nothing else. Wouldn’t be the first time in my life I used a phone for everything.

      Artix straight-up refused, and I presume antiX’s general stance is against age-gating as they proudly state their anti-fascist stance in their tagline, and as far as I’m aware Devuan is against age-gating as well. I also can assume Parabola and Hyperbola are against this as well.

      And then of course Ageless is protestware.

      Adenix also refused.
