From looking at this announcement, it seems that all they've done is make different national IDs interoperable and easier to use digitally.
All of this does not concern me on it's own.
What does concern me is IF the greater convinience translates into greater ID and KYC requirements throughout internet services. That is what we should watch out and be wary about.
baby steps lol
I agree but people on twitter are blowing it out of proportion and making it seem like "wait now you've crossed a line!" when they do this shit all the time. This is nothing new.
Another step closer to SaFe FreE movement and EU level coordination is nothing new, indeed
There have been many big steps carried out past 5 years
The fact they push the blurring of borders gradually is however not less concerning to me than if they tried to push it altogether at once
It's not a matter of IF but WHEN
And WHEN they do it, it might be too late for us to try and find a worry to fix about it
It would be less concerning if citizens had effective democratic mechanisms to prevent or revert any abusive use of this #DigitalID system by unelected parties. But since this is not the case we know that this system will ultimately lead to some sort of digital communist #dystopia and yes, #KYC to access the internet will be part of it. It would be foolish to think that this is not their intentions.
