EDRi, the European network defending rights and freedoms online, today published an article on the EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet or eID Wallet):

The eID Wallet still doesn’t deserve your full trust

Despite its imminent deployment, the EU’s new eID Wallet is not yet fit for purpose in terms of safeguarding the rights of its users. EDRi and nine CSOs urge the European Commission to amend the draft implementing acts to ensure that users cannot be tracked, forced to share sensitive data nor to provide their legal identity where this is not required by law.

EDRi has participated in a European consultation and also wrote an open letter together with other organisations. The full open letter is here (pdf).
