This isn't Reddit, don't do some weird cult of not using specific letters

I used ðe correct letters, ðough? Just because "th" is more common doesnt mean ðe oðer letters are wrong. Also, you misphrased your arguement, saying "not" and accidentally flipping ðe meaning of what you said.

You keep being awesome

I won't repeat what I said in the sibling thread. But I don't see anywhere in this specific Colorado bill trying to restrict OS level features or go anywhere near open-source. As a parent, if I put little Timmy on Arch and give him root access, I don't get to bitch about what they do online. This is about a single signal (kid/no kid) at the user-auth level, without slurping up PII and shipping ...
