I’m surprised at the concerns about systemd adding this field, for most users that install their own systems, they’re usually the admin, so have total control over what that field will hold for any user. 1/1/1970? Who cares?

    Oh it's not about what the field currently is. I don't think anyone's particularly worried about that

    the issue is more about what's to come. It's shown that the systemd people rushed to acquiesce to at least one law like this, who's to say they won't do it the next time it gets a little more invasive? It's not like they had to do this, they're not a distro, they're just a system component. A system component that's been steadily digging deeper and deeper and trying to make itself harder and harder to remove.

    (Also, let's let them ban Linux in California and just watch how fast the techbros freak out and lobby to get the law reversed. Just not complying is the better option here.)

    It's a trust thing.
