Another 2nd chance to tell legislators that the mechanisms that we have inherited from #Unix, and used in loads of #FreeSoftware operating systems from #NetBSD to #Tribblix, do not have date of birth/age fields for user accounts, is #Illinois, where HB5511 is the very same text as #California's, too. https://my.ilga.gov/Legislation/BillStatus?DocTypeID=HB&DocNum=5511&GAID=18&LegID=167486 It really does seem at this point that this is model legislation. Sponsors in Illionois are Jennifer Gong-Gershowitz, Margaret Croke, Janet Yang, Rohr, Kimberly Du Buclet, Natalie A. Manley, Angelica Guerrero-Cuellar, Rick Ryan, Michelle Mussman, Martha Deuter and Tracy Katz Muhl. The bill is in the judiciary–civil committee as of yesterday. It was introduced last month, 1 day after it was introduced in Colorado. I wonder in what other states it has just turned up. A lobby organization handing pre-drafted bills to multiple sets of legislators is not unknown. @nileane@nileane.fr @RunxiYu@social.treehouse.systems#CaliforniaLaw #USLaw #IllinoisLaw #FreeSoftware #AgeVerification
