• Do they need to do any updates? The point of it was the message, it was never about making a serious OS. It was literally just “we’re going to break California law because there isn’t shit a single state in the US can do about it”.

    Also, I thought I read that open source projects were recently exempted, so the point is probably moot now anyway.

      It was obviously performative at the time. A lot of bitching and moaning but in the end, it was a nothingburger change that distros could ignore as they do every other field on the user profile in systemD. But they had to make a “distro” to show how serious they were, then ignore it completely.

      I said at the time if it were maintained in 90 days I’d eat a bug. Apparently I was off by about 75 days.
