I'm from the Netherlands but I don't like IRMA. I respect what they're trying to do but they're lowering the barrier.

Right now most platforms don't do ID validation because users hate sharing their details. By making it more privacy-safe more platforms will do it because the barrier is lower. I really hate that, I think the internet should remain anonymous. So I can pick whatever nick and even have multiple.
