That was a poor choice then. They can do this with ZKP and not even know that.
Like it should be doable where sure the website might ask the government if its valid, but the government doesnt know who owns the token, so all they know is someone accessed the site, not who. So they could know general traffic to sites, but that would be it.
There would be ways to hide even the site as well where the website gives you a non identifying token to use with yours and be verified by the government as well, then they only know some site is requesting verification and sign it back to you as valid and you return it to the site. In this one the government only knows your using it, but not where.
