Yes, except it isn't a meme distro.

I respect what the guys who made it are doing, but if you read the description, it's pretty clear they just made Debian + a script and called it something else.

Maybe "meme distro" isn't accurate, it's meant to be intentionally inflammatory.

Just read their homepage

If you flash Ageless Linux onto a USB drive and hand it to a ten-year-old, you are an operating system provider distributing an operating system to a child.

Or this

Instead of an API, flagrant mode installs a file at /etc/ageless/REFUSAL that explains, in plain English, that this operating system provider declines to comply and invites enforcement action.

Flagrant mode is intended for devices that will be physically placed into a child's hands.

Or this

John McCardle... I am the covered application store. I am the person who curates the catalog. I am the person who will hand the device to a child. If the California Attorney General would like to discuss any of this, I am easy to find.
