Should this method of age attestation become the standard, apps and websites will not assume liability when a signal is not provided and assume the lowest age bracket. Any Linux distribution that does not provide an age bracket signal will result in a nerfed internet for their users

Fuck just as I commented yesterday about this BS entering Linux kernel, it can become new reality
