"Progressive states" like Utah, Texas, and Louisiana?

Literally every single thing you linked to is completely unrelated to the topic at hand.
Those are all specifically targeted at mobile app stores—which already verify age—and have nothing to do with general purpose operating systems or their account creation.
Try moving the goalposts more carefully next time.
They are two sides of the same coin, both funded by Facebook to shift age verification liability from their platform to OS vendors.
If you were interested in information beyond your own echo chamber, you’d realize that literally every significant app store is run by an OS vendor.
Try using basic critical thinking next time.
