Curious how OpenBSD or Haiku will comply.
- dpe82 7mo agoBy adding a simple birthdate field to your account info and a system API of some sort for retrieving the account owner's age range, same as everyone else.
- prmoustache 7mo agoFor what I understand, OpenBSD could just patch useradd so that the age category is mentionned in the comment field of /etc/passwd or a random text file in /etc. Haiku could just run an automatic dialog asking you if you are minor, in Illinois or California and write a text file with the corresponding age category of said person. These bills do not mandate that the user cannot modify that information AFAIK.
- JCattheATM 7mo agoI can't imagine OpenBSD would be bothered by laws specific to a very small selection of US states.
- iamnothere 7mo agoOpenBSD devs have signaled noncompliance from their Canadian fortress of freedom.
- sanex 7mo agoTbh they probably don't care about anyone other than Microsoft or Apple, though it's certainly not written that way.
