We just can't help it. Can we.

Only reasonable explanation I have, other than pure incompetence is that this is in a development for quite a long time and current political situation become obvious problem only in last few years.

I use coinpay’s DID it is simple anonymous and works it’s open source too

So, we have safety services owned by a country with nuclear weapons, while Europe is regressing in all domains.

This is not safe.

OH FFS. "safety services". NO. It's monopolistic services.

And when the safety services of Google and Apple fail, the citizens will be the only ones to pay a price. This is madness.

Big facepalm... EU had really only one job with the EU wallet... And missed the point completely. GrapheneOS is probably closer to EU data security and privacy standards than Android or iOS.

Its simply unreal that the EU is pushing that in order to participate in society that I must accept the TOS of Google or Apple.

God help you if you need to try and fix a serious problem. Sorry, you loaded a video of the first dance of your wedding to YouTube and now have a copyright strike, now you can't file taxes.

Hopefully you are famous enough on Twitter to get someone in Google to fix this.

In general government policy for technology and communications, is a regulatory capture gift to big corporations.

The government gets data to “manage” the citizens and the companies get data to “manage” consumer and the power structure is protected.

LMAO of course

5 years ago, some smarty pants would've worked out how to implement digital ID wallets on the block-chain, and there would've been some uptake for it in the European environment .. these days however, it appears everyone has given up on that idea and defaulted back to the fascist approach (corporations doing government work).
