Earthbound, GTA, PSP and the death of Linux in California

The last week of February 2026 was an ENORMOUS seven days for The Review. I pushed many long-overdue changes to the code and we published 10 – count 'em ten – phenomenal articles from four different authors!

Earthbound, GTA, PSP and the death of Linux in California

I still don't get how this can effect a distro not made in the USA.
Most are not commercial.
How would they judge some one from the other side of the word and enforce it?
@Bigfood it's not so much that distros from outside of California wouldn't need to comply... It's that THIS IS HAPPENING EVERYWHERE. Colorado, the UK... And it's happening with more regularity

@gardiner_bryant
This is clear and is worrying.

The Brits are a special case, since they left the EU nobody cared what they do ;)

California was always one of the first to do what the whole us applied and large parts of the world copied.
