@cybervegan in fairness to the four signatories, the statement is suitably:
― terse
― professional
― non-aggressive.I'm not the target audience, but I can see how the statement might grab the attention of individuals and groups who are targeted.
There is, amongst other things, an element of https://xkcd.com/2347/ (xkcd: Dependency) – without explicitly stating "Don't fuck this up.".

EU implementation of age verification maybe would not only have all the bad ipacts of age scans but wooorse… (yes you'd maybe think how can it get worse? Or you think well age limits are not bad… in any case…)
They will require face scans! For really no real benefit!

@csolisr @EUCommission The #EU #AgeAttestation app is not #FLOSS now, and might not work on all devices, specially on those where EU citizens opted out of #US #Google control. Hope the president gets better tech advisors, these issues have been known to the app developers since the beginning, yet the speech says otherwise.
We've opened: https://github.com/eu-digital-identity-wallet/av-app-android-wallet-ui/issues/57 but the linked long discussion shows there's little hope.

CW: age attestation, California AB1043
Suppose an operating system doesn't issue signals for adult lusers who aren't 'Users' as defined by AB1043 (that is, defining adult lusers to be eighteen years or older).
Further suppose that the California Attorney General issues an injunction against the OS providers as per the law text despite no 'User' being harmed.
Does the Attorney General have legal standing in court to enforce this injunction in the absence of any harmed party?

I created a Linux/BSD age attestation/verification tracker, to map out which distros are safe from that crap, which should be avoided.
https://odysee.com/@fossery-tech:4/Linux-BSD-age-attestation-verification-tracker:7e0569c608
(The list is a bit long, couldn't post it here)If you know about the stance of any other OS I didn't list there, feel free to drop a comment. Other suggestions to improve the list are also welcome.
