<![CDATA[Systemd v261-rc1 is out with the 'birth date field']]>cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/65292654

For those interested on the question of age verification and GNU/Linux: be aware that Systemd v261-rc1 was recently released. It now implements an optional birth date field in the JSON user database (see second item under "Other changes").

The implementation of this field was prompted by age-verification or -attestation laws.

(Age-verification status of Open Source Operating Systems.)
