The California age verification law imposes behaviour of application developers that I consider morally absurd.

As an application developer, I will never request any information from the OS or any other place to gather personal information about a user - especially if the act of that request has legal implications on what I am deemed to "know".

I simply won't.

Any system that enforces such a check, is a system I will not support.

I am so glad I got the opportunity to grow up in an age where there were no restrictions on what I could do with computers I could access.

Personally I consider any attempt to remove that access from anyone as abhorrent. It is a core part of who I am.
