US state laws push age checks into the operating system - Lemmy.ca

I’m so sick of hearing about this, and seeing people who don’t want to read get upset.

This is preemptively combating future federal crackdown by allowing Californians to TELL THE OS ANY BIRTH DATE THEY Want. No ID, no pictures of faces.

Didn’t read I guess? This goes beyond the Californian bill. The NY bill specifically does not allow this.

This specific article opens with the California bill being mentioned:

“The top line of California’s Assembly Bill No. 1043 says: “AB 1043, Wicks. Age verification signals: software applications and online services.” It was approved last October, but it’s hit the headlines this week. In brief:”

Bill Text - AB-1043 Age verification signals: software applications and online services.

AB 1043 Age verification signals: software applications and online services.

CA should be dragged through the mud.

All these laws are creating footing to ease in more draconian laws in the future. Disgusting stuff

You should really read up on the law. That’s just my opinion, though.
