  1. This week's Linux and FOSS news:

    LINUX NEWS

    Vendefoul Wolf Linux (Devuan-based) rejects age verification:
    xcancel.com/vendefoulwolf/stat
    (Never heard of this distro before, but it's always good to have some more options to go to, especially distros which reject most of the mainstream stuff which are more prone to age verification and other forms of corruption.)

    Qubes will do whatever upstream Fedora does (so likely comply):
    github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issue

    CachyOS also refuses compliance:
    discuss.cachyos.org/t/age-veri

    Garuda Linux plans to "comply" in the least invasive way possible, only with some checkboxes:
    forum.garudalinux.org/t/a-stat

    Parrot will only comply if legally forced to, it's implementation will be easy to bypass:
    parrotsec.org/blog/2026-04-02-
    (I wonder what they mean under being forced. When they receive an email from the authorities, or what? 🤔)

    OpenMandriva won't implement age verification, but won't remove it from Systemd, stating it can be useful for other things:
    forum.openmandriva.org/t/syste
    (The comment right below describes pretty well, what the problem is with this...)

    CuerdOS (Debian-based distro) rejects age verification:
    skyview.social/?url=https%3A%2

    HyraxOS (Linux Mint-based distro) also refuses age verification:
    hyraxos.weebly.com/age.html

    Fluff Linux (Arch-based) also says no:
    xcancel.com/flufflinux/status/

    And Athena OS (Arch and NixOS-based ethical hacking distro) too:
    github.com/BryanLunduke/DoesIt

    Debian Is Figuring Out How Age Verification Laws Will Impact It:
    phoronix.com/news/Debian-Undec

    Freeport project aims to strip Linux packages from age verification:
    github.com/ryandward/freeport
