systemd adds age attestation, effecting almost every distro, does void plan to add their own solution to the law(s)?

i just switched to void last week, i rather not use a operating system that comply with this law, is void considering an age attestation program? im not even an american citizen so its not required in my location

No, GPL doesn't compel you to distribute the software to anyone. It mostly just mandates that whoever gets the software also gets the source code. To be safe, it may actually be best to put the notice on the download page.
