    So a developer of a FOSS application that gets installed on a device on California

    would make the developer subject to this.

    And they’re going to do what exactly to a developer that doesn’t live in California? I won’t add any kind of age verification to my bioinformatics projects and I’ll keep issuing releases. Are they going to nuke Brazil? Block GitHub in California?

      Since it’s a civil case I doubt they could enforce payment on people outside the US. I am not sure if they can collect from people in the rest of the US but they probably can.

      I suppose not complying with a court order could result in criminal charges. Brazil will not extradite you but you will not be able to visit the US.

        you will not be able to visit the US.

        That’s fantastic news, so I win and keep winning in that case. Great, no age verification on my software.
