Take notes systemd
That was a breach in policy, btw.
What do you mean? Systemd maintainers merged the PR and the founder blocked the revert. They have obviously some hidden agenda about this.
Complying with fascist laws is barely a “hidden” agenda in the NaziMerica.
At the least other inits have begun resisting these Nazi laws.
I was trying Artix with openrc yesterday in case I want to migrate

I was just point out there’s nothing hidden with Nazis acting Nazi. Everyone in SlopD is a Nazi.
Every thinkpad in my household is gonna use that!
when did systemd add or say they plan to add age verification?
Yeah there was some drama about it.

This blog explains the situation but also attacks the developer that did it and I do not think he is to blame here.
that isnt age verification though, it is not verifying the age; its just asking the user to input their age, something websites and apps have been doing for ages
That's the first step to it. SystemD doesn't need to store any private data like that. Like most changes, if it's done in stages, instead of all at once. It's much harder to revert...
Yeah fair
