Why I Emphatically Oppose Online Age Verification Mandates - Technology & Marketing Law Blog
by John Wunderlich 01 May '25

Hi Folks; It’s beginning to look like the PEMC work group is starting to flag on the work to develop conformance testing. Let’s revisit this at next week’s call. In the meantime, the following post came to my attention. It flags why, if we decide to proceed to extend the PEMC requirement to online scenarios, we will have to deal with questions like what privacy-protective online age verification looks like or whether it is possible. https://blog.ericgoldman.org/archives/2025/04/why-i-emphatically-oppose-onl… Have a better than expected day, John Wunderlich “The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal their bread.” ― Anatole France Calendly: https://calendly.com/privacycdn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/privacycdn/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/privacycdn.bsky.social Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@PrivacyCDN Twitter: https://twitter.com/PrivacyCDN -- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Re: [Openid-specs-digital-credentials-protocols] Second WGLC for OID4VP
by Tom Jones 24 Apr '25

24 Apr '25

Here is a Dark Pattern of Verifier requests that was actually seen in the California mDL trials run lately. The Verifier will get permission (or whatever it might be called) to ask for a collection of purposes, for example a convenience store could be selling chewing gum, hard liquor and sim cards for smartphones. This is what the ecosystem allows it to ask for, along with payments. So if I buy a stick of chewing gum and decide to pay with my EUDIW, it is within the approved permissions for this store to ask intrusive questions that apply to purchasing liquor or sim cards, which are very intrusive in some countries.

the current OID4VP standard is (IHMO) not compliant with PEMC
by Tom Jones 23 Apr '25

23 Apr '25

This issue from the still evolving spec shows (IMHO) that the spec currently planned for the EUDIW (and other) ecosystem will not meet the PEMC because it is not clear how informed consent is achieved. Complexity is (IMHO) not a good answer in the world of AI and human inattention. https://github.com/openid/OpenID4VP/issues/333#issuecomment-2816774542 So what to do? Allow the sort of obfuscation that the OIDF spec demands? Or to take arms against a sea of complexity and by opposing, end it. Kantara has proposed an alternative solution that avoids the complexity.

Conformance Testing for PEMC participants
by John Wunderlich 16 Apr '25

16 Apr '25

Hi; The group's next meeting is in two weeks, and I would like to start the work on conformance testing. There are two artefacts: A conformance spreadsheet that an organisation can use to assess their level of conformance against PEMC: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kxUWyCnL-KKGBVzDsvLMujmDM7ItEPtlGs5… A companion document to provide documentation to support organisations that may be self assessing against the standard: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sDS2F7ndtGnc1jFY4yIfvsdpai1Y5s9ZFfFCVX5… I strongly encourage work group members to attend the call on the 30th to help lay out the work and identify any issues.
