Parents Decide Act (H.R. 8250)

To require operating system providers to verify the age of any user of an operating system, and for other purposes.

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.

    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.
