This - enterprise app creators (more concretely, their security auditors) outright demand that the users are locked out of their devices and that the device confirms and enforces that before their app is installed. The amount of these apps and these processes is increasing and has now made it into governmental rules as well (e.g. new digital IDs).

All the more reason to find ways to break those restrictions.

Surely running a digital ID app on something like e/os is possible? If not there should be a lawsuit.
