I expect the law would place the responsibility on the companies managing / distributing the OS. That’s the reason companies are complying. People can always look for alternatives… I’m sure there will always be homemade distros without stuff like this made by ragtag groups / communities without much of a corporate structure behind.
It’s one more tool in the bag that the State can wield against us. My more conspiratorial thinking as this as an accidental part of the frame work of how they create the slave knowledge worker class since anyone who actually works in tech will disable this. That way they can sweatshop devs into fixing bad AI code without paying them.
Would they actually go after the people?
