California users practice penmanship in preparation to expected return to paper and pen.

Even if they could enforce it which I highly doubt, this law is clearly a "Fuck you and your free software".

Like if a "too young" user have the skills to update the OS to change or even remove the age verification, who will be responsible? Yeah I don't know either, but both will be bad.
