Farming, with its many related jobs, but also making sails, brewing beer, assisting in house work, distributing coal, blacksmithing, pottery, woodworking, the list goes on. Smaller communities, with the majority of the population, in the early 1900s really were a lot of small (family) businesses.

France and Germany propose hybrid schemes as well:
The german position:
https://www.bsi.bund.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/EN/BSI/Publicat...
"The quantum-safe mechanisms recommended in this Technical Guideline are generally not yet trusted to the same extent as the established classical mechanisms, since they have not been as well studied with regard to side-channel resistance and implementation security. To ensure the long-term security of a key agreement, this Technical Guideline therefore recommends the use of a hybrid key agreement mechanism that combines a quantum-safe and a classical mechanism."
The french position, also quoting the German position:
https://cyber.gouv.fr/sites/default/files/document/follow_up...
"As outlined in the previous position paper [1], ANSSI still strongly emphasizes the necessity of hybridation1 wherever post-quantum mitigation is needed both in the short and medium term. Indeed, even if the post-quantum algorithms have gained a lot of attention, they are still not mature enough to solely ensure the security"

The Dutch electronic identification app, DigiD, uses the Android-native attestation API.
Also good to make a distinction between the different things you can do in an attestation procedure: bootloader/boot integrity checks, attest a specific key, and ID (imei etc) attestation.

Definitely US pressure. NL is always eager to get on the good side of the US, even if they get nothing in return. For example participation in the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and Gaza today.

If anyone is curious about DSI's and ANSSI's positions referred to in this comment:

I remember something like that happening. Someone optimzed something and boom, one billion of valuation gone. It seems ridiculous on the surface, and definitely smells of a bubble to me.

I did something similar, share contact via QR code, offline, but with a dedicated encryption/decryption device to realize the airgap: www.qryptr.com

Not sure why this is downvoted but the sleep and dormant pico examples have quite some issues, they are still in "extras" and not in "core", so while documentation of features is my personal favorite aspect of the pico, there is room for improvement here still.

Also, the museum hardly has any say in prosecution.

To me, the book was mostly an eyewitness account. Orwell himself remarks on the absurd amount of factions and how bizarre things were after returning from the front. I agree with your take that he went in quite blind, but you can feel that he has experience as a journalist. I was most impressed by his descriptions of small acts of humanity in a hopelessly complex conflict.

A sad day for humanity when death, the great equalizer, gets closer to being controlled by rich people. Not that rich people not already have access to better healthcare, but still.

Ahh, we are against violence, except when it is applied to people we don't agree with. We are against surveillance, it is only to be applied to people not in our group. We are for freedom of speech, but only if you agree with us. The list goes on.
