Apologies if this isn’t the right place to ask this, but I thought actual developers with a deep understanding of how technology actually works would be the people to ask!
If you were tasked with setting up a safe and secure way to do this, how would you do it differently than what the UK government is proposing? How could it be done such that I wouldn’t have to worry about my privacy and the threat of government suppression? Is it even theoretically possible to accomplish such a task at such a scale?
Cheers!
EDIT: Just to be clear: I’m not in favour of age verification laws. But they’re on their way regardless. My question is purely about the implementation and technology of the thing, rather than the ethics or efficacy of it. Can this seemingly-inevitable privacy hellscape be done in a non-hellscapish way?
If you go look at the EUDI github there’s a mention of “issuer visibility” in the overview and a red cross as the current status of it. Someone asked in an issue how this should be interpreted, and the official response was along the lines of “not implemented yet /not currently prioritized”. So it’s in the pipeline… so I would assume that anything you do connected to the EUDI will have zero privacy vs the government. Prnhub won’t know who you are, but the government will know that you use prnhub.
