Apparently this is illegal to implement as of right now, but it’s not helping the feeling of technological doomerism I get whenever I think about this whole identity verification situation.

Sorry, do you have any sources for this? I was just thinking about getting a VPS in Switzerland today.

Some other commenter mentioned that this is brought up in issues tracker in the repo. Sorry, I didn’t actually check for it.

I’m not in the EU, I didn’t dig into it. FWIW I am also moving my own connections to exit from Switzerland sooner or later.
