Per the very first reply on their thread discussing it in their forums, which I linked directly to for the post title:
We’ll NEVER require any verification or identification from the user.
However, what’s gonna happen should the attempts to age-gate the XDG portal screw over alt-init distros like Artix too? My guess is maybe they start blocking regions which force age gating like Arch Linux 32 is doing.


The Californian bill doesn’t. If you have knowledge to the contrary please provide.
I am confused on what you are trying to say, English isn’t my native language. Could you say what exactly the point of your comments is?
I’m saying that “We’ll NEVER require any verification or identification from the user.” can be true even when they comply with the Californian bill.
Ah, I understand now. That is AFAIK correct, however complienace with the New York bill will be impossible:
Source - The bill
Possible. The NY bill leaves a lot to the discretion of the NY attorney general.
But yeah, seems a lot worse.
