The web was designed as an open place, centralization around identity providers to comply with laws that do not understand the landscape is going to problematic as we keep moving forward. Call your representatives, tell them to talk to small tech too.
3/3
This law is poorly written, and potentially violates the dormant commerce clause, but could’ve been far worse. Fyra Labs opposes any legislation requiring ID verification for use of digital services, this law is not that, but sets the groundwork for expansion in the future

We are aware of California’s Digital Age Assurance Act.
We’re in active conversation with our partners and legal experts about our obligations under this law, and how we can minimize the effects on the Linux ecosystem and our users

Our hearts are with our neighbors in South Minneapolis, there’s no such thing as an illegal person ❤️
