The owner of the machine is the one who decide. You can already make the life of other non root users absolutely miserable. The major difference is that it is YOU who control that. Not the company you bought your laptop from.

Also attestation is a super cool feature when you understand it. Because again, it’s free.

In general, systemd hate is a mark of ignorance. Which is fine. Ignorance can be fixed.

I need to ear it now

And in a twisted way, this may be good. For instance, Microslop will probably spent millions to please their pedos overlords. They will require PC vendors to add cryptographic chips to ensure you cannot change your age, that has been verified after a background check required to buy Windows… We all know how product managers think (if you don’t you’re lucky, stay the fuck away)

The probable result: more and more people will switch to Linux, where they can be a 3000y old tree.

Whatever the old farts will come with their stupid laws, SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKERS, it’s Linux. It’s always a sudo away from doing (or not) exactly what you (don’t) want. I know. This is beyond their comprehension. Adding a field here is ok to me. Because if it ends up being used:

• I can not set it
• I can set it wrong
• I can be 1000y old
• I can have a different age for every request
• I can prevent the shit accessing it from accessing it
• I can uninstall the shit that is trying to access it

The only thing that will hurt from this are companies in CA, CO and wherever.

The average Linux user will not give a single fuck. I know I don’t.

Of course. How would Microslop or Google LLMs snoop on your data then? You guys really make no effort… /s

Passkeys are fine. It’s just MTLS but by marketers (if by passcode you mean passkeys. otherwise, what’s a passcode?)

Yes this is an invitation to it. Destroy that shit.

Yeah. Everytime this happens my answer is “what about fuck you?”

None of these dis-services are necessary. None.
