Texas SCOPE act takes effect Sunday. How does Lemmy comply? - eviltoast

“The SCOPE Act takes effect this Sunday, Sept. 1, and will require everyone to verify their age for social media.”

So how does this work with Lemmy? Is anyone in Texas just banned, is there some sort of third party ID service lined up…for every instance, lol.

But seriously, how does Lemmy (or the fediverse as a whole) comply? Is there some way it just doesn’t need to?

    It’s called the “Fuck Texas” response to such a garbage law. And good luck enforcing it especially with federated sites.
