This regulation is so shitty. I'm quite sure that it is supported by big actors in the end, because the end goal is to ensure to have a regulatory barrier that will avoid small actors to be able to strive in the software field.

Also, to avoid "dangerous" not yet professional amateurs having a chance against big editors.

In fact, I'm even wondering if this legislation is not a legal trojan horse in some way.

Look at everything that is included (VPN, OS, anything related to security,...). This regulation forces to have full declaration of the identity of the editor/manufacturer and more. Any other product that is not under the control of the authority will be illegal.
