It got downvoted since it says this regulation isn't made to spy on people. People want to believe it was made for a sinister purpose and not just due to naivete.

If you look around you see plenty of people that gets upvoted and are critical of EU, so that isn't it.

We had a recent MITM on jabber.ru[1] conducted by Germany, a EU state that was only detected because they failed to renew the MITM cert. I have no reason to believe making this easier isn’t one of the goals of EIDAS.

How can you make this any easier? The ergonomics of letsencrypt are probably better than anything the EU could come up with.

Fair chance they'll just keep using letsencrypt.
