The law specifies that the age flag should be attached to the user’s account, not the machine, so there is no need for anyone to attach their identity to the laptops. Likewise, in a server farm, it will be the account of the admin that’s used when they are working on them, I’d imagine you would mark daemon accounts as the lowest level, as they would not need the extra access.
In my previous jobs, we had to get the account setup first before giving it to the user. We would go in and sign them into all of their tools as we were transferring their data from older machines.
The point is that few things are the best case scenario. That’s the issue. They seem to think computers work like the government. They’re a tool. Like a hammer or a paintbrush. The idea of trying to attach an account or physical machine to a person is silly because it’s inherently transient. Locking them down further only serves to make the hammer less useful.
