Genuine question: how is this a privacy invasion? Isn’t it simply digitising the already needed paperwork?

Fair enough, though I’d imagine there’s some actual platform constraint to force using an old version for a new project

Generating food with your favorite diffusion model doesn’t count
OOP might not have, but FP certainly has

Because we’re monkeys
This is actually genius
Hope they learn the hard way to stay away from overly powerful centralised systems, I can see that, probably, when they made their choice, the stance of the service seemed good enough to bite the bullet and have a convenient setup, but we’ve seen time and time again how corporate will comply with governments as they rightly have to do, only privately can you really not care, though you also take the responsibility for that. What we can hope is that decentralisation makes the crackdown harder to put into effect
And they call it list comprehension, like bro, I don’t even have reading comprehension
Not even trying the Plan B?
I keep putting that off, but maybe I should really dive into that.
Thanks for telling me about the TUI btw, I didn’t know we had that too now!
That’s also a good option

Really neat, but man, wasn’t intending to get teary eyed in the meme community 🥹
Totally agree on this, but as for the rest, I’m guessing this only expedites linking up information by virtue of it being in a computerised system rather than enabling it at all.
It is very worrisome that a party like that could get into power, but it doesn’t change how it’s always been, we are at the “mercy” of our government, if they want to single out a demographic and actively hamper it, they will find a way regardless of the tools in use.
To focus on this as a bad aspect looks to me like it’s sort of missing the point, this more or less should provide an easier management of information.
What could be argued instead, is that it is locking out people who don’t have the access to devices enabled to it, which is a real problem if they want to phase out papers completely. Here in Italy already with the IO app we can (so it’s currently fully optional) have our driving licence digitised, but that single feature doesn’t work (at least for now, and it’s been almost a year by now that support hasn’t been added) on GrapheneOS, for example.
I think the real issues are two: a hostile government, which holds true regardless of methods, and lack of support for secure and private platforms which the citizens should 100% be entitled to use
