⚡🇪🇺 ICYMI - The EU is pressing hard member states to roll out a new age-verification app as quickly as possible, targeting the end of this year
They say the app works in a simple, privacy-focused way:
- Users download it once
- scan their passport or national ID to confirm their age
- receive an anonymous digital credential. >This credential proves to websites or apps that the user meets a required age
Several nations, including France, Italy, Spain and others, are already testing the system.
Considering the app demo got hacked in under 2 minutes with a mobile phone, these are terrible news, I can see a massive data breach of personal info
