They actually already do in the EUDI wallet reference implementation. There, as this is part of a more general ID system, they probably want to avoid that people duplicate or export IDs. In case of a privacy preserving age check, the fear c

Nope, it is my system currently. I hope we won't go back to GDR where the government needed to approve eachtypewriter.

You forgot to mention the additional remote attestation shackles you put on that trenchcoat. Note that I - as opposed to the posts parent - used an official trusted CA as an example. TLS: I see your ID with some governments signature in y

Unfortunately not. They will use even the most privacy preserving protocol to push remote attestation of end devices. Which in itself is a stepping stone making their next steps much easier.

Technically, if your phone needs to be remote attested, it can be considered a government system, not a user's system.

It is not at all like TLS. With TLS you at least can get your own certificate signed by an official CA, and use that private key on whatever system you want.

> jailbreaking / "prevent tampering" Now your EU government requires you to have an unmodified Google or Apple device to use any age restricted services. Cementing the US mobile OS duopoly and locking out any free systems

That dongle has its own Bluetooth stack and is exposing a standard audio device via USB. Indeed that currently seems to be the only way, but then the stack need config input somehow, which in case of this one requires a proprietary Win&#x2

On Linux it is even worse: there is apparently no USB dongle that would support isochronous audio and recent enough BLE versions. Only some very limited selection of newer PCIe Wi-Fi cards.

I would agree of there was a choice or actual free market. But there isn't, and your argument is fundamentally flawed. Because there often is no actual choice, the options are artificially restricted. Starting with, many phones cannot

Google actively avoided providing a local, secure, and seamless backup or even an interface for 3rd party backup services to make users more dependent on Google cloud services. Of course many app developers decided the Google cloud is too

Panoramax instances are currently only really available for France and Belgium though. Turns out it is neither easy nor cheap to host that many pictures.

Even worse: it silently fails if the device does not run an unmodified anf certified Google Android OS. This means, it will not work on alternative OS and rooted devices

Alexa Echo Dot has 6 or 7 microphones. I'd expect that makes it much easier to filter out voices directionally than only the 2 microphone this hardware has. I hope they release a version with more microphones.

How does that differ from or relate to the already implemented GNS (GNU Name System)? https://www.gnunet.org/gns.html https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9498/

That's apparently just green washing. If they were serious, they would at least offer bootloader unlocking?

Wouldn't a dual-beam NDIR like the SCD30 be much better in that regard, with much fewer calibration issues?

The SCD30 also is a dual channel or dual beam NDIR sensor, meaning it doesn't really drift. Unlike most other ones that need the room to have outdoor-level CO2 once a day or week or so to calibrate.
