The news articles about this law, if said articles were published, are likely buried under the ongoing Caso do Banco Master (a large financial scandal involving a bank), the all-encompassing political crisis going on in Brazil, the international Iran-USA conflict, among other ongoing events. There are too many things happening simultaneously, so I don't really blame news outlets: they can only cover so much because we, as humans, can't be aware of all things when too many things are happening. So this is why little (if anything) about said law is being reported by news outlets such as Globo/G1.

Even as a Brazilian myself, I wasn't aware of this law (I was only aware of the so-called "Lei Felca" named after the YouTuber/TikToker Felca; but it doesn't seem to be this law specifically). I only got to discover about this law through the English-speaking Fediverse and Nostr posts.

Wow, LOVED the shirt! 🖤 Ágios Lux ferre!

I, too, do use a similar t-shirt, whose print I designed myself tries to depict Lilith. From afar, the print isn't that explicit, though: to the average bystander, it's depicting a pale woman with glowing red eyes, dark red lips, straight long dark red hair and feathery dark red wings (certainly mistaken by others as angelical), holding a red rose flower. Even the text ("Rebele-se pela", Portuguese for "Rebel yourself for" at the top; "Liberdade", "Freedom/Liberty", at the bottom), which is stylized (gothic font), is too small to be read from afar. The only tell is the mirrored ⯝ (the Venus/Feminine symbol but the circle is a waxing Moon; in my art, it's actually a waning Moon for Her Crone/Reaperess aspect) tattooed on Her left cheek, and the dark wings.

The problem is how the country I was born into is utterly christian; most employers and merchants are christian, especially in small towns (one of which I reside in), which are known for "quermesses" (annual church fairs). And when the majority of potential employers, especially the local ones, are utterly christian, saying out loud about professing a different religion risks one's own economic and social existence.

For example, a Mãe de Santo (leadress of a terreiro, which is the Afro-Brazilian sacred place of gathering) was refused an Uber car ride after the driver reprimanded her for her clothing typical of Afro-Brazilian, then she sued the driver for religious intolerance, but the judge denied her request and ruled favorable for the driver, inverting the entire situation and arguing "it was the Mãe de Santo who was religiously intolerant with the christian driver"; the judge was reported for being religiously intolerant (news articles in Portuguese), but the damage is already done).

In another example, a statue representing Lucifer/Baphomet/Exú from a Luciferian-Quimbanda temple was seized by a judicial decision after local christians became terrified of it, and the statue is still seized for more than a year.

Those became headlines, but there's a plethora of religious intolerance going unnoticed, social ostracism caused by simply having another faith other than christianity; it even risks body integrity (e.g. gangs such as Primeiro Comando da Capital torturing and/or murdering practitioners of Afro-Brazilian faiths).

This is the persecution me and many others are fated to face as soon as age checks, tying online activity (where I don't measure my words to praise Mother) to the legal ID, end up (inevitably) leaked (e.g. Discord age check DB leaked just days after implementing age checks).

@TriplePlaid@wetshav.ing @qwerty@discuss.tchncs.de @technology@lemmy.world

For me, a Brazilian, there's something I must hide if I want to be employable: my occultist practices, my religion. I'm a worshiper of Lilith, surrounded by mostly Christian people. I literally heard "faux-jokes" (when people want to condemn someone, but wrapping the condemnation as a joke) tying my belief to "ending up in hell".

Even though my legal name isn't difficult to find through my pseudonym, you can imagine why I use a pseudonym to openly express my religion. And once digital activity is tied to my CPF (Brazilian citizen/legal identity), and I'm definitely not buying the "anonymized checking" arguments, suddenly potential employers and buyers/merchants will know I "worship the devil" and will have yet another reason to refuse hiring me or buying/selling things from/to me.

Also, some of Lilith imagery and stories involve content which is sensitive, subjected to those very "age check" laws, further making it necessary for me to comply to "age checks" whenever I want to read or write, observe or do drawings about the fundamental deity I worship.

But according to certain people, "having something to hide = must be a criminal!!!". Because they're likely followers of some mainstream religion which is not socially persecuted, or religion isn't something significant in their lives.

Seriously. I'm truly tired of this world.

Estou respondendo assim porque eu não consegui puxar seu comentário aqui pelo Calckey/Sharkey (e também não recebi notificação, vi pelo Lemmy.ml sem conta por ali para responder diretamente). O Calckey deu erro alegando que sua instância retornou um formato de dados "incorreto" ("Response is invalid: It could communicate with this server, but the data obtained was incorrect").

Eu falei de meme kkkkkk

Ah, agora entendi! hahah

mas vou procurar uma distro 100% livre, talvez ir de vez pro GNU Guix

O foda é que, por mais que existam distros 100% livres, dificilmente ficarão fora dos olhos dessa lei.

E, pegando o gancho desse trecho...

Vou precisar mostrar minha CNH pro meu próprio servidor? Acho que não, pelo menos não tem como saber, a não ser que a polícia viva dentro da minha casa.

Tem outra: a gente tem que lembrar que, apesar de termos inúmeras alternativas de distros e de sistemas operacionais no PC, o PC está restrito a, basicamente, Intel e AMD.

Ademais, há não muito tempo, houve toda uma migração para TPM 2.0, inclusive por parte da comunidade Linux. O TPM 2.0 talvez seja a forma pela qual todo esse lance de verificação de idade ocorrerá, a nível de hardware. É onde, inclusive, faria mais sentido tecnicamente falando: é um hardware que basicamente dita o que pode ou não na máquina.

Daí hardware mais antigo, que não tem TPM 2.0, não só se tornará obsoleto, mas também acabaria se tornando ilegal, por carecer de mecanismos de "segurança", tal como, como uma analogia e exemplo (embora o exemplo a seguir pode não ser um exemplo preciso ou correto), veículos muito antigos (os primeiros Fuscas, e veículos da época ou anteriores) se tornaram ilegais por carecer de itens de segurança exigidos pelo CTB (cinto de segurança, limpadores, etc).

As pessoas já lhe responderam, mas permita-me aqui fazer uma ênfase:

Lei nº 15.211 de 17/09/2025
[...]
Art. 2º Para os fins desta Lei, considera-se:
I – produto ou serviço de tecnologia da informação: produto ou serviço fornecido a distância, por meio eletrônico e provido em virtude de requisição individual, tais como aplicações de internet, programas de computador, software s, sistemas operacionais de terminais, lojas de aplicações de internet e jogos eletrônicos ou similares conectados à internet ou a outra rede de comunicações;
[...]
Art. 9º Os fornecedores de produtos ou serviços de tecnologia da informação que disponibilizarem conteúdo, produto ou serviço cuja oferta ou acesso seja impróprio, inadequado ou proibido para menores de 18 (dezoito) anos de idade deverão adotar medidas eficazes para impedir o seu acesso por crianças e adolescentes no âmbito de seus serviços e produtos.

§ 1º Para dar efetividade ao disposto no caput, deverão ser adotados mecanismos confiáveis de verificação de idade a cada acesso do usuário ao conteúdo, produto ou serviço de que trata o caput deste artigo, vedada a autodeclaração.

Ou seja: não será uma caixinha pra selecionar a data de nascimento, ou um botão "sim, sou adulto", porque ambos seriam "auto-declaração". Em outras palavras: validação facial ou identidade (reconhecimento facial via terminal do Linux, could you imagine that?!) pra usar a porra de um computador. E considerando que aplicativos e websites são sine qua non pra muita coisa essencial a fim de se "viver em sociedade" (contas bancárias e Pix, carteira digital de trânsito e outras identidades digitais, gov.br que agora exige autenticação de dois fatores, etc), sendo vedado portanto o Luditismo pelas dinâmicas sociais, sinceramente... pra mim esse mundo e essa minha existência já extrapolou meu limite existencial e, se minha Deusa Mãe Lilith quiser, vou-me logo logo simbora desse pálido ponto azul de uma vez por todas!

O pessoal que tá dizendo que vai instalar outros sistemas operacionais que não Windows e Linux (como, por exemplo, @potatoguy@mbin.potato-guy.space mencionou TempleOS): essa lei afeta todo e qualquer sistema operacional porque a galera lá de Brasília não entende de ciência da computação (como vai ficar o Alpine no Docker, outras formas de virtualização como QEMU e VirtualBox? Será que computação em nuvem vai virar "coisa ilegal" que nem VPN virou no DesReino Unido e que também já tem precedente de definição como "ilícito" em algumas decisões do Supremo aqui no Brasil? (não entro no mérito dessas decisões, estou simplesmente lembrando que isso já ocorreu)).

Mas é lei, sancionada pelo Excelentíssimo Presidente da República Federativa do Brasil, Luís Inácio Lula da Silva. E tudo indica que passará a ser policiada e fiscalizada daqui duas semanas.

First: there are already robotic sensors capable of taste and smell (e.g. World's first artificial tongue ' tastes and learns ' like a real human organ). Those sensors could technically be integrated to a language model, although the approach for training would be different (can't simply feed it with gazillions worth of taste/smell corpus).

Then, there's a thing called multimodal, it's a thing already. LLMs can be multimodal, and there isn't exactly an algorithmic limit to how many "modals" (textual, vision, audio, robotic sensors and actuators, etc) can be connected together. Smell would be just another data stream to be integrated into the model's latent space.

The only thing I agree is that robots and language models wouldn't have "feelings", although this is pretty much a subjective thing: if we consider science, feelings are nothing more than the interaction of neurotransmitters (oxytocin for "love", dopamine for "joy", epinephrine for "fear", etc) going on inside our gray matter, and humans aren't the exclusive ones to be able to "feel".

And scientifically, living beings are no better than, say, an asteroid wandering through the cosmos, for everything is "made of star stuff" (as per Carl Sagan): humans, cats, chairs, residential buildings, AirBus A350 aircrafts, satellites, asteroids, everything is made by a bunch of baryonic particles (which is merely the collapse of waves) interacting with leptons and mesons like some kind of double pendulum dynamic system.

Of course, we can consider things beyond the scientific strictness, such as spirituality (I myself am spiritually-leaning, even if it sounds like I'm not due to my aforemention to hard science). But then some spirituality branches believe that spiritual forces would be able to "embody" inside a computer or other electronic device (e.g. Spiritism's Electronic Voice Phenomenon). I myself believe LLMs can be interesting digital Ouija boards.

In the end of the day, we homininae can't even define sentience and consciousness, just barely the concept of "intelligence" as "capability for tool usage" (in which New Caledonian crows want to have a word).

And from a solipsistic perspective, no one exists but oneself.

I mean, you can neither know nor prove whether I'm sentient, just like I can neither know nor prove whether you are sentient. To you, I may even sound like LLM due to the way this reply is structured alongside the seemingly non-sequiturs I used.
