Look up the US Cloud Act. It's everything the media told you China was, but in the hands of an orange dictator.

It's funny how many rules there's made by the party who always talk about freedom.
It doesnt work like that in Denmark. You can get this without being a Danish citizen with a Danish passport.
You can also get this ID as a child with your parents consent.
That's a fair point.
My argument only applied to the age verification in the Danish app, which doesnt share the ID to any server.
The point is that you get a verification by logging in with another 2FA app, whos only job is to verify with the government server, that you are indeed a Danish citizen with official documentation.
Then the other app recieves that token that only contains an age group with a true flag. This token is then shared with the private companies.
As a stand alone solution to age verification that everyone needs to use, this is pretty well thought out.
If a Linux phone then comes around that everyone would buy, you could do it better, yes.
It's always interesting to me when I hear people who distrusts governments more than private companies.
Maybe because I'm from Denmark, but it sounds so backwards.
If I were from the US tho, I would think the same. Or like "i'm fucked regardless"
Depends from country to country.
Denmark for example have issued an age verification app, where no data other than "Allowed/Declined" is leaving the app.
No specific age, no name, no data.
The token is issued by the government.
Always expect what China might do, the US (NSA) does more.
This guy cows.
Please dont do any politics in your life governing consumer protection.
Then they removed their ads from all channels below 8,000 hours, right?... Right?!
This comment should have been the post.
Well, honestly?
Since these certificates are not banned nor up for debate, the NSA probably already have a way to get all the data through another loop hole.
Yes, it protects against "attacks" from outside, but it's naive to expect they dont have another way in which goes beyond LetsEncrypt.
