End of September, Switzerland will vote for E-ID. A big threat for our privacy as it will widely used for tons of new use cases.

Behind the government pitch of an "open source project, completely optional" hides big tech industry... Which will make it mandatory to access their services.

What are your thoughts on that ?

Just required for few services. Not it will be used more broadly

    Did you read the law? It explicitly prohibits broader usage without the necessary new laws to allow them to do so.

    I known, but its still up to the provider. And to prove its unnecessary will takes so much efforts. There's too much lack in this law from my point of view. Instead, to prove our age for example, we could get TOKENS with age verification that are completely anonymous.
