Welcome! This is a community for all those who are interested in protecting their privacy.
PS: Don't be a smartass and try to game the system, we'll know if you're breaking the rules when we see it!
Some of these are only vaguely related, but great communities.
I hope they make it very clear that setting this value is not recommended in most jurisdictions.
Since this value can be used for fingerprinting, and in the future many site will be able to at least get the age range of the user. The more people set this value, the more exposed everyone is.
I hope they provide a non magastan version because those rules don't apply to me in my country
The problem is, its not just the US by any stretch. And targeting volunteer devs etc is more likely to backfire. They are as much victims as the rest us. Just trying to keep these failing states from targeting them.
They just jumped with no discussion. I hear systemd removed the merge so I thought it was settled by now. In any case, systemd is pain in the ass anyways. Those network commands are too long and I can't ever recall them. I miss Linux without having to make so many notes all the time.
they will anyways. first person that gets found lying or disables it, they target the distro.
the law was written to make compliance the metric for dissidence. all "users" are minors. identities flagged as not a minor is a lie, as users cannot be minors only "account holders".
it's not written to support the Linux ecosystem. it's specifically worded to exclude and target the Linux ecosystem if it tries to comply without using meta/google/Microsoft to handle accounts.
Just make it default to 0-0-0000 and do zero validation, yeah it might seem weird that most of our users are thousands of years old but we're too lazy to investigate.
