If you don't want to be censored just don't check the checkbox that says "this device is for a child, please censor adult content"? There's no passport check in the CA/CO law, in fact it's expressly forbidden.

> It can get worse. New York’s proposed Senate Bill S8102A requires adults to prove they’re adults to use a computer, exercise bike, smart watch, or car if the device is internet enabled with app ecosystems. The bill explicitly forbids self-reporting and leaves the allowed methods to regulations written by the Attorney General.

Interesting that everyone is labelling things not for sale in CA/CO but nobody is labelling them not for sale in NY.

I don’t think they have processed the NY law yet. It is completely incompatible with the open source model. When people finally figure it out there will be an uproar.

Select your location, if NY etc.
