TLDW:

Brazil is requiring OS level age verification by march 17th, 2026.

New York about to vote on a law that would "require all manufacturers of internet-enabled devices, operating systems, or application stores to conduct commercially reason-able and technically feasible age assurance for users at the point of device activation."

In order to “incentivize” age verification, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has announced that they will ignore COPPA violations for software performing age verification.

Eu falei de meme kkkkkk, mas vou procurar uma distro 100% livre, talvez ir de vez pro GNU Guix, e se der nunca mais interajo com nada proprietário ou de serviços online, hostear minhas coisas em casa mesmo, como esta instância da qual falo.

Vou precisar mostrar minha CNH pro meu próprio servidor? Acho que não, pelo menos não tem como saber, a não ser que a polícia viva dentro da minha casa.
