@itsfoss the headline is misleading, systemd did not add age verificiation support: https://blog.bofh.it/debian/id_473

@jxvvt @itsfoss There seems to be more concern about this than what you're asserting is being done by 'Nazis' here.

Why should systemd have this field at all? Why is it necessary?

@clonedhuman @jxvvt @itsfoss I'd bet that because user sessions are handled by logind, and that is a natural place to keep data about the user.
