GSMA Europe notes that the following technical report has been published by ETSI ESI: https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_tr/119400_119499/119476/01.01.01_60/tr_119476v010101p.pdf

GSMA Europe welcomes the effort to formalize a high-quality analysis of the capabilities of many of the protocols available today to perform ID related transactions in the context of eIDAS2 with an emphasis on privacy aspects. As was expressed in https://www.gsma.com/gsmaeurope/resources/eidas-2-0-and-privacy/ , GSMA Europe thinks that privacy is a critical aspect of eIDAS2 which may be decisive for its successful adoption by civil society. GSMA Europe has therefore worked to identify and publicise the solution enablers that could transform privacy from a challenge to an opportunity for eIDAS2.
