1. OS‑licensing exemption
"No, not exemptions! Drop the stupid‑ass law all together." — kgwxd 2. Ambiguity of the legal definition of “operating system”
"What are they defining as an operation system? It’s a term that has fuzzy edges as a technical term, and given laws are usually piss poor at defining technical terms, I can’t see it being well defined in CA law." — hnlmorg
3. Age‑assurance / RTA‑header technical approach
"It's a bit late for that, given that around half of US states already have some kind of age assurance mandate." — ekr____
4. Parental‑control implementation via RTA header
"The only thing server, platform, website, service providers should be doing is setting an RTA header if the content could possibly be adult or user‑contributed content that could dynamically become adult, moderation aside." — Bender
5. Corporate lobbying influence
"Meta alone spent 2 billion dollars lobbying for this worldwide, and it was a massive success, it's passing everywhere unanimously." — oceansky
6. Anti‑regulation / libertarian perspective on open‑source OS
"If OSes that don't verify the age of their users are a genuinely unsafe for children, why should they be allowed just because they are open source?" — jwitthuhn
