Thanks for that.
In the linked document it specifically demands that "consumers should be able to choose the credentials by which they may wish to identify or authenticate themselves". [ My emphases.]
Now, I'm the most anti-ID person I know, but the headline "The EU wants you to log into YouTube using your state-issued ID card" does not seem to be supported much by the document claimed as its source.
