What are you feelings about the push towards adoption of full digital ID ?

By full digital ID, I mean a government issued/managed ID that gets used for *everything* and eventually will replace all sorts of seperate licenses, endorsements, etc. for access to government services at local, state, federal and even international levels.

ie. you won't have a physical license card for anything, even for accessing your banking, and the only form of 'identification' will be an electronic record linked maybe to biometrics or similar which will require you to carry an authorised 'smart device' everywhere you go if you can't do the biometrics to 'authenticate' yourself with.

This is the 'third pillar' of what the UN and WEF are pushing for alongside fully digital currency systems (CBDC - with no physical currency), and social credit scoring systems.

No thanks. That's way too much control by the government. I can't imagine anyone would willingly hand over every aspect of their life to the government. I'm sorry, but anyone that wants that, either has no clue about life or is not thinking critically.

@LadyBronte Most people have quite a big electronic footprint but the key is being able to control it and control who gets access to information about us. That's where the other aspects esp the CBDC one will come in.
