  "textContent": "dragon-in-a-fez:\n\n> today’s reason I fucking love the open source community: Ageless Linux, a brand new Debian-based operating system specifically designed to break the law by giving children access to computers that explicitly refuse to track their age.\n\n> This is the cultural inheritance of AB 1043. It is Prohibition — not the policy, but the pedagogy.\n\n> Prohibition did not stop Americans from drinking. What it did, with remarkable efficiency, was teach an entire generation that the law was something to be circumvented. It created a culture of scofflaws — people who understood, from direct personal experience, that a law could be simultaneously enforced and universally ignored. The damage was not to sobriety. The damage was to the perceived legitimacy of law itself.\n\n> AB 1043 does this to ten-year-olds. The first meaningful interaction a child has with a legal compliance system will be the moment they learn to lie to it. Not because they are deviant. Not because they lack supervision. Because the system is designed in a way that makes lying the rational, obvious, universal response. Every child will lie. Every child will succeed. Every child will learn that this is how law works: it asks you a question, you give the answer it wants to hear, and then you do whatever you were going to do anyway.",
