I worry this will squander their new deal with Motorola.

Then again, what's the point in a world class privacy OS if it complies with compromising mass surveillance laws?

I mean, they must comply or face fines, whereas users can modify things however they please. I am ready to leave google, discord and twitter, so for users like me who won't be on platforms that require age verification, I'd have no qualms about modding my OS to remove/disable age verification.
