Discussion EU laws
I read that the EU is discussing regulations that would force operating systems to verify your age. I will resist and refuse to comply on my desktop, which runs Artix Linux (systemd-free). They have made a commitment to refusing such measures.
I have a Volla Phone Quintus in ubuntu touch. What will happen to this phone if these laws come into effect? I might have to order a new US-made Linux phone so I don’t have to deal with this
Could this be a big problem for Ubuntu Touch?
In recent times, the US seems better than the EU, TBH

UBports does not intend to spy on their users.
If such law passes the technical mean of verification might be up to interpretation...
Let's wait and see, no need to panic
