When I scan the qr code on my phone, it actually launched my country's own eIDAS app. The EU verification app looks more like an application of eIDAS, data is stored on your national id card, that's it.

The EU verification app is actually doing what you described for the German ID card, you get back a signed predicate "over 18" and that's it. It's also there for other legally meaningful ages, in a way you can you it to target the age a bit better, but you would have to issue many challenges to the user.

Thanks for the update. Wow, I'm impressed. For some reason I thought those were passport scanners or something. Still, digitally registering attendance feels quite fancy compared to my experience in more run down universities (not in the UK).

Anyhow, it's a bit of a shame that you had to pretend attending lectures for immigration purposes when you were already studying as a researcher

Many national systems.

Direct free instantaneous bank transfers in the SEPA member states. And the systems built upon it like ideal/wero/blue chip and others.

As far as I know most of Europe favors debit instead of credit cards. Financial life in the EU is organised completely differently from North America (well, at least from USA and Canada, haven't been to Mexico yet).

I don't know how it's charged in France but in other European countries that "tiny box" is often part of a costlier subscription plan. And it's a device fully controlled by the ISP.

The reason people buy those apple tv/google tv/Nvidia shield and others is to have as many content streamers as they may need in their home, and to have control over what they can display on their tv set.
