OS Kernel Age Verification Anonymous 09/13/25(Sat)10:38:27 No.1436085
California passes a bill which will require developers of any operating system to implement a kernel API which will require that users of the operating system verify their identity when using the system.
This is supposedly to protect children from the dangers of downloading apps from the app store provided by their computer or mobile device.
https://news.bgov.com/bloomberg-government-news/app-stores-face-age-verification-task-in-cleared-california-bill
https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB1043/id/3268012
The state Assembly approved revisions to the measure (AB 1043) by Assemblymember Buffy Wicks (D) that would require app stores to check user ages to download apps and make purchases. The Senate earlier passed the measure 38-0 on Friday

This bill bill, beginning January 1, 2027, would require, among other things related to age verification on the internet, a covered manufacturer with respect to software applications, an operating system provider, as defined, to provide an accessible interface at account setup that requires an account holder, as defined, to indicate the birth date, age, or both, of the user of that device for the sole purpose of providing a signal regarding the user’s age bracket to applications available in a covered application store and to provide a developer, as defined, who has requested a signal with respect to a particular user with a digital signal via a reasonably consistent real-time application programming interface regarding whether a user is in any of several age brackets, as prescribed. The bill would define “covered manufacturer” to mean a person who is a manufacturer of a device, an operating system for a device, or a covered application store. The bill would require a developer to request a signal with respect to a particular user from a covered manufacturer an operating system provider or a covered application store when that user requests to download an application. the application is downloaded and launched.

TS PMO.
not only is this a huge security risk in many many devices. but just with one line "think about the kids"
say that to the court and fucking win every right to a company. if this doesnt stop soon. the digital world COULD. crash sooner or later.
"protecting kids" to hell with that. why aint no one talking abt kids in palestine. are they not human.
i just feel theres something much deeper than concern for kids in this case..

EXACTLY ISW.
i doubt this is anything with online safety.
maybe something to do with the government collecting info on everyone out there.
could be something worse. (im onto something or nothing)
think about it. instagram. facebook. twitter. all lack anons. and u give ur entire info to the platforms.
who knows where your data goes. heard the rule about once somethings on the internet, it never gets deleted? . this might be the beginning of cyberpunk-(picture this in 10 years. huge corps with info on people. infact. info is all in the world that matters. smallest of it is costly.) i dont like how things are going but we got no proof or whatsoever anyways(welp. at least we got 4chan)

ffs I hope so.
Idk why the fuck Democrats think they can legally require an operating system to spy on you.
What about shit like Linux that's literally developed all over the world by developers where 95% of them are not within Californias jurisdiction?

Nigel Farage opposes online safety legislation
Thanks for admitting you support Gary Glitter, Nige
Remember what happened decades ago after Glitter took his laptop to be repaired at a branch of PC World and a computer engineer there took a look at what was on his hard drive...!

>Linux
Despite Covenant Eyes being installed on his Windows computer, rabidly judge-mental funda-mental-ist Christain rightard Josh Duggar installed Linux on another partition to get around that Windows app. As a result of what he'd downloaded: including some of the worst material in existence found to be on his HD after investigations, he's doing 12 years in Federal 'Pound Me In The Ass' prison, and after that, put on the sex offenders registry in perpetuity.
The FBI given relevant data by Scotland Yard, in turn helped by GCHQ which scans, monitors & intercepts the entire telecommunications network, including the Dark Web.
'Requiring an operating system to spy on you' is the least of anyone's problems. That info via Scotland Yard gathered by GCHQ & shared with the FBI. The latter work with Democrat administrations too.

This on it's own doesn't sound THAT bad, but with everything else that's going on? Fucking hell, man.
