They just updated their license to exclude California residents. The law is so vague there is a possibility to apply it against the project, per project team.

I envision sysadmins rebooting 10,000 servers, each one asking to verify the op's age, and even better, each time a web server forks off a process. (OK, this is hyperbole, but sometimes you need hyperbole to point out absurdity)

But not to worry. Very large companies "somehow" manage to get exemptions adn carve-outs from California laws that burden most of us. It's the golden rule. Whoever has the gold, rules. (stares at PG&E bill)

Do you remember the disappearing "billionaire tax"?

No idea how this will affect much of FOSS, for example, source code and binary repo's being blocked (I haven't read all the fine print).

"Shoot, if you must, this old gray head (with a camera, thank you) but spare free and open source operating systems, I said."
