Neil BrownIf it is indeed the case that any country's EIDAS (electronic identification, authentication, and trust services) implementation requires an account with a third party tech company - Apple, or Google, or whatever - then that is repugnant and reprehensible.
doboprobodyne@neil Haha reminds me of that time in 2007 when the NHS Medical Training Application Service, the entity with the monopoly on doctors applying for specialty training jobs, openly published online personal details, including telephone numbers and sexual orientation, of applicants. I'm given to understand that the firm to whom the job had been contracted was er... rewarded with more government contracts.
Which is to say, even an account with a second party has a significant possibility of getting contracted out to a third party. Argh!
