A recently enacted law in California imposes an age-verification requirement on operating-system providers beginning next year. The language of the Digital
Age Assurance Act does not restrict its requirements to proprietary or commercial
operating systems; projects like Debian, FreeBSD, Fedora, and others seem to be on
the hook just as much as Apple or Microsoft. There is some hope that the law will be
amended, but there is no guarantee that it will be. This means that the developer
communities behind Linux distributions are having to discuss whether and how to comply with the law with little time and even less legal guidance.
