In an open letter to the EU’s proposed digital identity reform, signed by 409 scientists and researchers from 33 countries, as well as numerous NGOs, you can read:
Concretely, the regulation enables each EU member state (and recognised third party countries) to designate cryptographic keys for which trust is mandatory; this trust can only be withdrawn with the government’s permission (Article 45a(4)).
WTF! The idea of mandatory trust sounds oxymoronic to me. I'm reminded of this definition of love:
Love is our involuntary response to virtue, if we're virtuous.
You cannot command or command love, this would be called rape. Similarly, you cannot command respect, and the same applies to trust.
