I guess the argument would have to be the admittedly stretchy one of by requiring an eID you are requiring people declare who they are when communicating, which would then be compelled speech.
since this is HN I better clarify - I'm not sure I agree that should pass or would pass, it seems a stretch to me. But if I wanted to make the argument that is where I would go.
- INTPenis 3y agoNot necessarily. An eID can also just make a call to the eID issuer, identifying the person, and then a callback to the service indicating that the identified person complies with certain requirements like age. Think of it as a bouncer at the door that does not divulge any details to the club owner. ;)
- AlecSchueler 3y agoThe requirement only applies to certain platforms, though, you're still free to communicate what you wish.
- soulofmischief 3y agoHow do we decide which platforms it applies to? And once the infrastructure is in place, how do we ensure the list of platforms does not grow at the whim of the administration of the month?
