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!

people don't realize this, but this is how they infect a good product and build surveillance network. today it is age verification for OS, tomorrow they will come with sex verification to target LGBQT+ groups or country verification to target minorities or immgirations, etc.
Meta, the evil corp who is behind this, wants everything trackable, starting with your age &d id verification, KYC, & whatnot. it is my computer, & i am not going to be tracked. it is the same reason you use an adblocker

@nixCraft @reddy_1975 this pr was closed by a systemd maintainer for the following reason:
"It's an optional field in the userdb JSON object. It's not a policy engine, not an API for apps. We just define the field, so that it's standardized iff people want to store the date there, but it's entirely optional."
didn't think the FOSS community would be so excited to introduce privacy violations so quickly

@nixCraft @reddy_1975 There's still the slop regardless of what they do with age verification.

@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.

Same shit:
Try to buy a car nowadays and tell me it is "your car".

@nixCraft am I reading this right? it says poettering doesn't want to merge the PR or even discuss it -

@nixCraft @reddy_1975 Huh? The PR says "Closed with unmerged commits" while it only contains one commit.
Unless I'm completely missing something fundamental, this means the opposite of what you're claiming.

@nixCraft @reddy_1975 I'm tired of this trend to pressure FOSS projects, how about we revert the laws. You're still a slave of the state, might as well stay as one if your only hope is to talk nonsense online.

@synnef@woof.tech @reddy_1975@mastodon.online it’s ‘open source’, not ‘the FOSS community’

Wasn't the report that published on this revealed to be LLM garbage?

@nixCraft maybe I’m misunderstanding but where’s the age verification? It looks like it’s just an optional field that they don’t do anything with?

@nixCraft @reddy_1975 any os with age verification is getting uninstalled and replaced by something that won’t sell me out to a gaggle of jackboot techbros with mommy issues from lack of love
