Yeah, I wouldn’t want my account tied to my bankid either. But bankid could easily make an age verification that wasn’t tied to accounts.

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification. Is that something they could have gone without and still be as secure as possible?

I don’t think BankID has any sort of SDK that lets other apps access user data like that? All interaction with BankID I know of at least is triggered with the app needing authentication/signature opening a BankID session to the central service where you enter your authentication and then the BankID app is used as MFA to verify this.

Or am I misunderstanding what you are saying completely?

Most kids here in Norway get a bank account with debet card and BankID with it at 13. Implementing a solution to use it to verify if you are older than X years old would actually be less work than your proposed solution, both for the social media site, banks, the kids and the parents.

BankID is it’s own trusted platform. It is not connected to any of them. I am not sure if I understand what the other person is trying to say. Maybe they are afraid that Google and Apple can use BankID verified sessions to better identify the user?

Any alternatives for iOS?

What data format is easy to read if it fills more than the entire screen?

That one hurt! I don’t know if it is because it was so wrong, or if it is because it was kind of logical.

The 5.25 inch floppy disk were actually very bendy (floppy), while the 3.5 inch one was rigid, so I guess that’s why OP named it that?
