the pressure from social media worked. In systemd, age verification has finally been reverted and removed for good. Linux is always for privacy conscious users, it isn't just another Microslop SlopOS https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/41179 thanks @reddy_1975 for the heads up!

EDIT: they rejected the PR. So keep fight on! systemd folks are cowards and enabling this mess.

@nixCraft @reddy_1975 people absolutely positively should not send the exact same PR from their own forks. This will annoy Lennart, who doesn't want to discuss the matter. So people definitely should not do exactly this en masse. If everyone did this it would create a massive headache for Lennart, because he is the only person who knows anything about anything, and he will have to spend time personally attacking all of these people.

If anyone thinks this is some benign and meaningless 'tiny little thing' that is the end of the story, they have not been paying attention.

"There's no such thing as #Project2025"
"Nobody wants to eliminate #vaccines"
"We're only after the criminal #immigrants,"
"We don't want #RegimeChanges."
"We're only trying to root out the #fraud in government."

People keep lying - doing the opposite of the lie - and have your ass over a barrel. WAKE UP!

Does anyone think that somehow, someway, that magically the #TechSector and #OpenSource would be spared of this #fascist horseshit?

It's one more teeny hook to latch onto and break wide open. They _want_ stupid subservience, and they see the ripeness and naivete in this community and will rape and pillage to their hearts content if they aren't stopped at the onset. They vehemently #hate intelligence and will burn this village down.
