   @erikkemp when I lived there, some of the faculty buildings already had locks that worked with a chip embedded in the key. At least the Zilverling had such locks. They could read out for an individual lock which keys were used with it.

     The housing corporation on the campus of @utwente is planning to replace all locks of ~2500 students living there with digital locks, that you can only unlock with your phone (via NFC).

     Some students are very concerned about these plans, so I just went to the UT to talk with @Brian , one of the concerned students.

     I'm very curious for replies with privacy / ethics arguments around these digital locks.

     @bjacobs , @marleenstikker , @xot, @Frederik_Borgesius , do you have any thoughts on this?
