How wonderful it is that we live in a free country where you can freely express your opinion without a government obstructing you, as in a dictatorship. Yet, that freedom and privacy are increasingly under attack. Under the noble goal of protecting children from malicious influences on the internet, the EU is already taking steps to launch the EU Digital Identity Wallet this year. This means that if you want to visit a porn site or social media site, you will be required to use this EU Digital Identity Wallet. Whether you are 16 or 80 years old.

The goal in itself seems very noble: to protect children. Under this guise, they also wanted to be able to view photos of your WhatsApp messages. In short, the EU, governments, and secret services are gaining ever more power over your internet usage, plus insight into the opinions you spread on your apps.
We follow you backkkkk 😉
