    The hell are you on about? People can, and are, upset about both. That said, changing a piece of software is monumentally easier than changing laws when you’re up against an entire industry lobbying against your interests.

    That’s why you see the focus on the software.

    Systemd refusing and telling CA to figure it the fuck out would have been one of the strongest counters to this bullshit currently available, and that option was just thrown in the fucking garbage. Of course people are going to be mad at systemd.

      That whatever happens the problem is always systemd. Chain of events:

      • voters vote for corrupt politician
      • big tech compaies bribe said politician to have shitty law
      • freedesktop requests systemd for backend to comply with said law
      • systemd just adds the field to the userdb

      Who is to blame for all of this? Poettering who else…
