    I don’t trust governments that mandate the usage of private American services such as iOS/Google to access the internet

      That’s a fair point.

      My argument only applied to the age verification in the Danish app, which doesnt share the ID to any server.

      The point is that you get a verification by logging in with another 2FA app, whos only job is to verify with the government server, that you are indeed a Danish citizen with official documentation.

      Then the other app recieves that token that only contains an age group with a true flag. This token is then shared with the private companies.

      As a stand alone solution to age verification that everyone needs to use, this is pretty well thought out.

      If a Linux phone then comes around that everyone would buy, you could do it better, yes.

          It doesnt work like that in Denmark. You can get this without being a Danish citizen with a Danish passport.

          You can also get this ID as a child with your parents consent.
