To take the voice of the other side

Age verification is a thing that’s becoming more important

It’s expensive for all the companies if they have to do age verification, apple and Microsoft are huge so they can easily absorb the cost, so if we make those companies do it, it takes the load off the other companies

It’s not that they’re open source hostile, it’s that they’re open source blind. I think they’re also using corporate versions of windows so they don’t get the worst of it, so they’re not incentivised to find alternatives

Linux is going to have a lot of trouble funding ID checks in the handful of jurisdictions where it’s necessary

I wonder if Linux should be presented as business software (since most Linux installations are servers) that should not be bound by that law, what does a server care about the age of the worker who set it up or the company that owns it
