People are crying about some age verification on linux. That itself is impossible, how come these absolute retards can't see the basic reality?
picrel.fully airgapped arch system

You are shortsighted.
Of course it is impossible to enforce on minimally competent people.
But you will be feel negative consequences either way if 99% of normiecattle will be age verified. It doesn't take much creativity to think of some of them

The real issue you should be questioning is where are the people who are willing to take action against this type of thing? You can thank trump retards!

>>108353734
Everything is fucked up, that is why I said for years don't invite retards and cattle to anything related to linux. We first started getting javascript desktop software, then we got systemd and look at us not, considering complete spyware implemented on every machine. At some point you gotta realize that the damage is done and you have to detach from the retards. If I am shortsighted then you are retarded.

This is and always will be an american problem as no other country could ever produce something as stupid as this. But regardless, even for americans (those born with a functional brain) should not be a problem to remove and not bypass. And to your question, as to where the people are who care about this, it's simple, those of us who care about our machines, don't care about any law. No matter what some country would say is illegal, if I want to do it I will do it. And also the bigger point is that nobody cares about american politics now, as everything they do is a mistake.

Look into how much of Linux is basically owned by companies such as Intel, MS, IBM, etc.

It's because you have civil liberties to not have your privacy violated, and government overreach and mass surveillance are unacceptable. Stop glowposting, retard.

It used to not be like this we actually had people who gave a fuck and would protest and fight for users rights but now for whatever reason no one does jack shit. Even the EFF just complains then does nothing.

Anon woke up from a 20 year coma.
Red Hat is a spook operation, and look at its influence and its own baby systemD.

Because the organised minority will always defeat the disorganised majority every single time.

all it takes is one scotus challenge to uphold previous scotus rulings that blanket age verification requirements are a 1st amendment infringement

there is no argument they can make that downloading a text editor requires age verification but it's very easy to argue that such a requirement impedes free speech
>>
>>108353691
everything that has a network/wifi chip ships with Linux are they going to put age verification on those devices to? fridge with age verification gona be funny to see
>>
>>108353852
"Please download this app in order to use our product," they say as they force you to use an app that has age verification in order to activate the device.
Basically the Windows activation for other devices, tied into a digital ID system.

The EU is working on the same thing, in fact most of Europe is much worse off than the US in free speech and privacy.
South Korea has had mandatory ID on the internet for decades at this point.

A well written open source code can never be owned by anyone.

i recommend just stop caring about it, reject spyware and even if they come right to your backyard and install a camera there, destroy the camera, it's that simple, simply choose not to give a fuck. The politics are a slippery slope, you can have offense/defense of people/companies/government but one slip and you will pay the price. This way of politics was never functional because it relies on pushback, instead of reason (which is what law should be).
>>
>>108353836
you are once again delusional anon, talking about politics will never solve anything, politics are a fine tuned tool for those that work against you, you cannot use that tool for your needs.

>>108353852
no they wont, i have never seen a fridge that has anything more advanced than a shitty 2cm^2 screen that shows the temp in my life, no matter what store I've been to.

>>108353861
choose not to use the solution then. I use my phone for music playing only.
