The government is not allowed to specify what your software you run on your local personal computer or how that software should work. This is a first amendment issue, it’s been defeated before, it will be defeated again. If this were ever upheld, you will immediately have legislation attempting to force OS makers to spy on users, add backdoors, and so on.

Edit: also, before the same jackass from the last few discussions on this mentions “muh ADA” again, the ADA has never been shown to apply to an OS in court nor does it mention anything about operating systems.
