Couldn’t reply to me pointing out that this was merged, and was stated to be explicitly to support age verification laws, so you had to lie about it as a meme instead.
Because thats what youre doing right now, lying and spreading misinformation. You can admit it.
Age verification could be a usecase. The PR in question just adds a optional date field labeled birth date. If you are mad about age verification (as you should be) feel free to direct your rage elsewhere.
It is just a arbitrary field. They could have a field for all sorts of questionable things and it wouldn’t bother me.
It is up to the people outside of systemd on how it gets used. Systemd is non political and will implement whatever features have a use case. They don’t control the distro.
You apparently are incapable of critical thinking if you don’t recognize political environments existing that drive the engineering of the technology in question. Thus being, wait for it, inherent.
sure, many things influence what technology is being developed, politics, culture, economy. That does not make it inherent, ie. inseparable from it. That would mean that you can only have technology where politics play a relevant role, which is obviously not true.

Technology is inherently political.
This is something that has been known and taught for decades.
Learning towards bad faith pedant here.
you don’t know what inherent means, apparenty.
fuck me, the “everything is political” crowd in here needs to touch some grass.
