For those interested, the Systemd release that's planned to include the controversial 'birthDate' field to user records, complying with age-verification laws, is v261 (see 'milestone' in the pull request). This release seems to be planned for May.

The current release, from some hours ago, is v260.1. I see that Ubuntu Noble (24.04) just updated to v255.

You're absolutely right. And it's the same group of people pushing for this in all these places.
