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 ?

Who decides what I'm voting yes or no on?

    There are two basic scenarios:

    1. The legislative authority is drafting a new law. This law can be challenged and will then be voted on (this is the case for the E-ID law)
    2. A suggestion for a new law can be raised by citizens. This law will then be voted on.
