California Just Mandated Age Verification for Linux. What Happens Now?

Описание: California passed Assembly Bill 1043, a law that requires every operating system, including Linux, FreeBSD, SteamOS, Windows, and macOS, to implement mandatory age verification at account setup by 2027. In this video, I break down what the law actually says, how the required real-time age signal API works, why enforcement on open source platforms is complicated, and what this means for privacy, developers, and digital autonomy. If you care about Linux, self hosting, or the future of tech policy, you need to understand what is happening here.
