Or that an operating system is a broad definition with some “operating systems” not being able to do anything on their own (strictly speaking, Linux is an operating system in the technical sense. it provides calls, interfaces with hardware, and manages memory. Without a userland like GNUs, however, it can’t actually ask for an age. Are we suggesting that Linux should prompt for age at compile time? )
Does this mandate include OS’s with no GUIs? Are the asshats writing this aware that there’s more than just Windows and Apple?
I think these laws are written with focus on Mobile where such os and app/website signalling is more prevalent

Probably. But they also aware that most of people use only apple or windows. Sadly, but in personal computers segment Linux is not very popular.
