Site seems slashdotted? Or HNd? Do we call it that here? :)

Some call it the HN hug of death. Same like with Reddit.

Thanks, we'll put that in the toptext too.

> In any case, it was always presented as a toolbox that countries should adapt into their apps – so judging the app by itself does not make much sense, it depends on how these techniques are implemented in each country’s verification app. There will be no single EU app, despite what the honchos of EU say.

Even more reason to make the "demo" app do things correctly because it's very unlikely that all member states actually implement things correctly.

> The internet is scary, parents think they can’t protect their children from many bad things happening, and someone came to provide a “solution."

A simple solution is just not providing your kids with a phone or computer.

Don't forget that many sources of porn will not obey this. Think the pirate bay will ask for age verification? If they obeyed the law they wouldn't even exist.

It's a solution for nothing, as the article points out too.

Whether there is a single app or not doesn't really matter - i'm more concerned about the database itself and the inter-connectivity between them and most importantly by which control acceptance protocol we abide between states.

The idea that we want a single database or a network without any kind of control is frightening me
