They want to require IDs which requires validation, which requires a central authority. Any websites you hit that require the check will request it from the OS which will need to verify with central authority. So they’ll know what websites your hitting.
Yup, the REAL goal here is to get an ID associated with an IP address to remove your anonymity from the web.
Maybe I’m I don’t have enough of a technical understanding (and I’m wrong about this) but I believe there is some sort of fingerprint at the OS level (not IP or Mac) that they can obtain when you’re on the net that in turn they want to map to your identity, thus even if you’re using tor/vpns to mask your IP, you’re still identifiable.

Governments already have an ID associated with an IP. There is no ISP that im aware of that lets you register anonymously.
This is different than the legislation being pushed in CA then, sorry it’s hard to keep up with the global enshittification of everything
