Don't freak out.

Systemd only has, so far, a field to store the age. It is up to the 
desktop layer to fill the data and use it for something. And your distro 
has to be using systemd-homed, which is where that database resides.


Read this:

And be sure to read the whole thread - the *replies*.

"systemd does not perform any age verification"




"Under the current passed legislation in the US, Operating Systems only 
have to provide a reasonable best effort or some similar wording."
