Actually....
Say what you like about the French today, but one good thing they have is an electronic service[1] where you can generate single-use KYC ID:

- For a specific recipient organisation
- For a specific duration
- For a specific use-case by that organisation

It looked great and I wanted to try it, but it doesn't work on the web and my smartphone is rejected with no clear explanation ("missing some security mechanisms"); probably because I'm running LineageOS with MicroG.
