It is open source and likely to be released publicly to at least check for some vulnerabilities, the same government wants user ID for phones and computers, I don’t know if I’d be ok with using that distro.

While that is true if it is for the masses in france who there would go out of their way to find the work around and implement it after switching from windows or Mac?

It would be great if it weren’t for the anti-privacy decisions the french government has made recently, but at least it shouldn’t be as bad as windows.
