Here we go, eID accepted in Switzerland. Vaud, the largest French speaking canton was the strongest yes and most probably balanced the results to the global yes.

At least it's not a clear rostigraben result, unlike the real eastate tax removal (which passed as well).

Open your bets, how long until it's mandatory or at least so combersome and costly to avoid it that it's implicitely mandatory to use it?

That's not good. I hope all these people against it, 49.6%, would strongly refuse to use it, to postpone the inevitable as long as possible.

How did they convince the yes people?

Pakes: i guess, as usual, ut is the convinience making the difference.

To me it is like a two sided sword. The idea is good but, as it is not me holding the private key, I dont like to trust others. Asspecial not the inefficent goverment.

The data might be pretty save at the goverment databese. However, the shard informations with third parties like comunes or insurances will be the weak spot.

It's not a question if infromations leak. It's just a matter of time. As long as nobody is forced to use the eID all is good. I doubt it will be like that.

My two reasons I voted against.

It still shows that nearly half of the Swiss voters know that they cannot trust the government. They might find the illumination in bitcoin, don't trust verify.
