What about distros that don’t use automated account creation , like Arch for example or Gentoo? The law isn’t made to accommodate those people:
“Provide an accessible interface at account setup that requires an account holder to indicate the birth date, age, or both, of the user of that device for the purpose of providing a signal regarding the user’s age bracket to applications available in a covered application store.”
The odd thing is the wording that it “requires” an account holder to indicate age or DOB. As with anything *nix, there is always a workaround. There is no way to require anything of the user. There’s also no definition for “accessible interface.”

That’s my guess. These people have no clue what they’re doing.

Technically, Linux is not an operating system, just a kernel, so I’m not sure how this would be implemented.

That would make too much sense.
