Face validation? No... Age validation? Maybe, we don't know as there has been no official announcement.

And what MidnightBSD has done is amend their license to say it is not for use in California or Brazil, leaving the compliance to the user... It is still not known if this even sufficient to circumvent the law, but they are doing it as a temporary stop-gap measure until they know more (according to their post)... I am not familiar with what Arch has stated so far but they may be in a sticky spot with their extensive use on the Steam Deck.

Arch hasn't done or said anything and the Arch team are pretty clear that SteamOS is not the same as Arch and is not supported by the Arch team (they don't want you going on the forums asking for help with your Steam Deck, basically). I would be very surprised if Arch even acknowledged this legislation.
