If it is any reassurance, not even the EU trusts the EU to control internet security: Parliament voted this down in its position, but member states are trying to bring it back. MEPs are fighting to ensure control remains with browsers.
It did, but we are also fighting against eIDAS. I’m told last night’s deal supposedly solves the problem, but I’m waiting for the text myself. (I worked on eIDAS in Parliament, my committee (Legal Affairs) recommended the complete deletion of Art45.
You can’t trust your govt and you can’t even trust the World Bank. Digital ID is being pushed globally, their excuse is to help people to get jobs and financing.
I’m trying to tell how bad it’s. Since there’s no article/news on internet that talk about Digital ID being pushed how it will eroding our privacy, so most people have no idea there’s a bigger issue than eIDAS.
Recently our government started asking people to register for the National Digital ID system by using an app on the phone.
I can imagine it can be a problem, but pasting a barely related topic with a warning on conspiracy, backing the ideas with URLs from unheard sources doesn’t help.
Digital ID isn’t the problem here. No system is risk free and we should always think critical but the concept of digital id is a huge plus for privacy.
Most people receive important documents in their mailbox while a Mailaccount is actually very unsecure to keep your data safe. In some places in Europe official/important documentation goes to a special mailbox that can only be opened using a digital id. Its miles safer then a password.
The issue at hand could be a problem
For digital id safety but that would be just one of many more negative effects from this bill. Id or not europeans be screwed.
Sorry, but this is on the level where I’ll never trust EU… I rather liked this organization but this makes no sense.
Like, which children to protect are going to be manufactured this time?

I think the EP voted down Chat Control for now, but this is a different thing.

Let’s hope so, feels like orgs were able to build up a reasonable amount of pressure in such a short amount of time.
It does kinda depend on whether this manages to actually pass…

I’m not an expert on this, but you should not make a one-sided argument on a topic that people are not familiar with.

I think physical keys would be better
Interesting ideas but still half baked
