    Pretty sure their solution would be mandatory carrying of approved devices. It will be the only way to provide identification and payments, essentially all the stuff religious nuts say about the mark of the beast minus the weird parts like demons or the invisible counter mark and shit like that.

      Most 2FA solutions on commercial websites (bank, online payment, electricity/water/gas providers) require a phone here instead of using open standard solutions or using physical tokens. They are doing everything they can to force us in to a Google/Apple lock in.
