Fuck Verizon for this exact reason. Never buy from them direct if you can help it.

I see many people disparaging the family. Saying that this is what they get for voting for trump. (unconfirmed, people are using them encouraging others to vote as reasoning to call them Trump supporters... Which is so awful and hypocritical.)

I hope people can remind themselves that these are real people with real lives, dreams, and concerns. No parent should have to bury their child no matter who they are.

Please also remember that service members are not given a choice to opt out of a specific president. For all we know the service member could have been the most stout democratic supporter.

Anyone have a mirror link to the original petition? The official site is not working for me.

FIPS updates/approvals always take a long time.

That is accurate and should absolutely be fought to the end. But the one that this "new" "distro" talks about is specifically the California one.

Just to clarify the law does not allow your os to transmit your dob. Only your age bracket.

But that is effectively what this bill does, just rather than a check box it is a date entry. There is no verification requirement. Only indication (attestation).

You are right. I have no additional response to this that would not make me sound like an asshole.

I'm sorry I am really not seeing what you are referencing from your link. This appears to be a link to the state administration manual which deals with how departments in the state of California operate.

This does not appear to be a law especially when you look at the procedure for revising the SAM.

Responsibility for updating SAM content is assigned to authoring state departments

Ie. Not assembly members.

Edit: sorry I didn't respond to your second point. From the Cali law:

1798.503(b) An operating system provider or a covered application store that makes a good faith effort to comply with this title, taking into consideration available technology and any reasonable technical limitations or outages, shall not be liable for an erroneous signal indicating a user’s age range or any conduct by a developer that receives a signal indicating a user’s age range.
