Yeah there was some back and forth. It got approved by someone from Microsoft then unapproved by Lennart Poettering. Basically temporary kerfluffle. There’s a writeup from yesterday, I think this: itsfoss.com/news/systemd-age-verification/
There’s now an unpopulated field to hold a birthdate but it’s not being used by anything. I guess that is sub-optimal though. This kind of thing if it’s to exist at all should be on individual user accounts, not anything system-wide.

No, you’ve misunderstood, here is a quote from your own source:
It was a reversion that Poettering rejected, the PR stands.

Hmm ok, maybe you could write up a quick summary. Yes it’s possible that I mis-read it. I thought that LP had rejected the PR. Thanks.

UserDB does hold data connected to individual user accounts
