@jdelacueva@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu is Google Play really the only way to use two-factor authentication there? not even a FIDO token or some other alternative?
@mira @EUCommission @jdelacueva i can even use 2FA in Microsoft Teams without Google vor MS apps.
Its just lazyness i guess

I am unable to install EU Login app in my phone because I use LineageOS and not the Google Spy Android.
Thus, I cannot use the double factor authentication, mandatory from the 25-02-2026 on unless I tell Google.

@EUCommission
Hey there EU commission. As a Hungarian citizen I must ask, could we not do this? This is a short sighted and arbitrary limitation that does not add to security but strengthens our dependence on the US. -

@jdelacueva the @EUCommission needs to mandate opening up mobile Phone manufacturers to third party integrity verification Services (and fund initial european companies to bootstrap them), so security related apps don't need to rely on Google/Apple integrity services

I will try out. So far i can still log in with user password (perhaps it depends on the European portal) -

So far i will keep on using just user and password.

@EUCommission
well, we insist in doing apps only for two platforms. There are other OS, really open like Ubuntu Touch that are not under a company.
If we don't start controlling the OS, we will have to follow big tech wishes. -

I hope BRICs develop better solutions for their citizens.
The EU is a sock puppet of the US empire.

@jdelacueva Shame on you @EUCommission Europe should be internet-sovereign and stop depending exclusively on foreign US big tech shady corporations.
European citizens that pay taxes in Europe and try to use Europe based alternatives to Apple or Android shouldn't be treated like this. It is a disgrace. Things like this have to change. We need European software running on an European OS, for Europe's sake!

@IvanSanchez @jdelacueva @EUCommission
Wait I thought the EU was trying to separate itself from US tech, that is what all their politicians are saying……….oh wait I see My error now.
@greatlaketrout @IvanSanchez @jdelacueva @EUCommission The European Digital Identity Wallet app for Android will require Play Integrity as well.

@jdelacueva @EUCommission Does this actually require explicitly Google's own authenticator?
There are a number of two-factor authenticators that should be completely compatible. (My preferred option being Aegis, but there are others.)

@jdelacueva @EUCommission At least one EU Agency uses Microsoft services (even for user management and login/security issues) and you have to use either SMS or MS for 2FA, no open standards.

@jdelacueva @EUCommission if the 2FA requires one particular app to use, that's suspicious, too. there are plenty of apps that will work with 2FA.
