Comment Re: Age-Verification Bill Excludes Open-Source (Score 2) 21
Open source operating systems are why this bill is stupid. They are trying to take the burden of age verification off of the likes of Facebook and Google and put it on the operating system. Even Fedora, Debian, and Arch all support this, a kid who wants to get on facebook can hack their own open source operating system and get around this requirement. The burden of verification should be on the content maker, not the operating system. If they are worried about the 1% who can use Linux then they should not be doing at the operating system level.
