nixCraft 🐧Damn 😱 imaging not being able to download your OS because of where you live right now ...
FreekyMage@nixCraft watched this video yesterday on how different distros are responding. https://youtu.be/bfj0wzclY0M
Linux Distros Respond to Age Verification..
BoloMKXXVIII@freekymage @nixCraft
How would "live" distros be affected? If the OS is running off of a flash drive, not installed, and no user account is created, are they exempt? If so, it blows a big hole in the effectiveness of this law. Little Billy can just boot off a flash drive and watch his p0rn.

@BoloMKXXVIII @nixCraft that question is exactly why lawyers are getting involved. Don't forget that different places will have variations on this law, so even if your loophole works in 1 place it might not work in another.
punIssuer@BoloMKXXVIII @freekymage @nixCraft IANAL, but I think exactly the same as any os that doesn't care about age verification (yet).
"Evidence" of wrongdoing would probably primarily be server logs either way - no one is stopping you from reinstalling or restoring an earlier snapshot of an installed os
