Alas, if only the government could provide government intervention? Since they can't, we're left only with the option of government intervention to mandate use

Alas, if only the government could provide government intervention? Since they can't, we're left only with the option of government intervention to mandate use of android or iOS?
In fact, intervention wouldn't have to be to change SMS. They could instead mandate a standard like U2F or FIDO2. If they really don't like those for some reason, EU states could get together and make a new standard and mandate that.
- Wowfunhappy 4y agoI agree with this take! I was trying to defend the Digital Markets Act, and was responding to someone who (as far as I could tell) appeared to be fundamentally against any or at least most government regulation.
- emteycz 4y agoYeah, especially if it's not absolutely necessary (e.g. the goal would be otherwise impossible). I'd be okay if they regulated telco carriers a little bit more than they already do; much more okay than with anything resembling what they're trying to do now.
