This is not acceptable, plain and simple.
jfor"The Government is legally obliged, under EU regulations, to ensure there is a digital wallet for accessing public services by the end of the year, and for private services by the end of 2027."
Weird 2 - Electric Boogaloo@fae2535 @Gargron If the quoted post isn't any indicator: The problem isn't the requirement to provide a digital wallet/ID solution. The problem is HOW our german government wants to solve it and WHICH services they want to exclusively use for this.
The outcome is that anyone can be blocked from access by order from a foreign (namely the US) government on a whim. Anyone jailbreaking their phone will have no access. Anyone using android forks is one business decision apart from being locked out.
fr0gI think if you're using an Android fork you're already locked out from the get-go?

This is what I also believe.
@glitzersachen @frog_reborn @fae2535 depends if they incorporate the necessary google services (for verification stuff) and if google decides to support the device OS. Especially de-googlefied OSes will be impacted by default, but otherwise compliant Devices can be shut off on a whim, if google decides they're not "trustworthy", anymore.
We see something like this already with competing app repositories like fdroid.

Since my banking app refuses to run on LineageOS, because some Google security or attestation framework shit is not there, I very much suspect it will be the same for any digital Wallet. So I think we are already there and not 1 business decision away.
