For those interested on the question of age verification and GNU/Linux: be aware that Systemd v261-rc1 was recently released. It now implements an optional
birth datefield in the JSON user database (see second item under “Other changes”).The implementation of this field was prompted by age-verification or -attestation laws.

Idk how many times we have to go over preemptive compliance with fascism before you all get it 🤦
Don’t expect any help when the field is enforced with a TPM signed by MS, otherwise 95% of the web won’t let you in, because you can’t verify with your government ID linked phone app that needs an OS level verification step.
