Right there in the FAQ:

> DO I HAVE TO USE THE STATE EUDI WALLET?

> No, use is voluntary and free of charge.

Your comment is controversial because you’re willfully misrepresenting fact.

For now. You are completely devoid of foresight if you can't see where this is going. Like, the most perfect obedient little sheep one could ask for. First they offer it as optional, then as adoption increases it becomes the only thing they support. It is already the case that some services can't be accessed without a duopoly phone, and in 10 years time it will become standard policy.

  • Can we stop with the edgelord “little sheep” stuff?

    Not everything is a slippery slope. What you are doing is editorializing and making assumptions about the future. Show me a piece of proposed legislation that wants to ban physical ID cards and mandate digital ones then we’ll talk.

    I interpret this as the government offering a convenience feature.

      "Wait until it's too late and then I'll acknowledge reality"

      They don't even need legislation to accomplish this. It is literally already happening that some government services are not accessible without those phones. You are being presented with a fait accompli and closing your eyes to it because you think words on paper mean anything.
