California AB 1043 signed. Mandatory os-level, device-level, app store, and even developer-required age verification for all computing devices.
Edit: altered title from “ID check” to “Age Verification check”
The law has no way to go after parents, unless there’s already some law on the books that does so and the penalties defined in this one somehow apply to that.
The penalties defined in this law are for OS providers not having a way to set age data within an account on a device or for not sending the age signal when requested and for developers ignoring the age signal or not requesting it.
