Il ministro degli Esteri suggerisce che verranno introdotte carte d’identità digitali per i tredicenni

Why do these old people not see what’s happening with digital ID’s, either make verification possible through the government instead of 3rd party serv~ oh wait they issue the fucking ID.

Jesus Christ these people are so fucking dumb

I remember the last time national id was touted being 16 and thinking bugger I’ll never get served underage now, im now in my 40’s

That’s not what was said, they said it’s being consulted on, so it’s one of the things they’re questioning.

The UK Government can’t prevent 40% of phone theft IN THE WHOLE OF EUROPE but they think it’s a great idea for us to have digital ID on our phones. It’s plain daft

Will this be the end of the labour party, or will the public quietly surrender?

And just like that they’ve made possession of such an ID useless as proof of age for buying alcohol.

Remember folks, this isn’t about government control of literally everyone and their ability to snoop inside your home, but jobs for immigrants.

Will cost tons more than originally though, and within 6 months millions of IDs will be leaked online or left on a USB stick on a train etc. Calling it now.

Seems like a good idea /s

Just gonna post this every time the topic comes up.

– centralised storage of personal data increases surveillance potential.

– largescale hacks could expose sensitive identity information. Putting all the info in one space is a waving a red flag to the proverbial bull (hackers)

– “Function creep” IDs may be used beyond their original purpose (tracking, profiling and such). And even if not mandated it could become the preferred method of things like banking etc. Makes life even harder for folk if you’re elderly or not tecch savvy.

– people without access to tech or who fail verification risk losing services.

– centralised control of all data is a bad idea as governments or corporations could restrict or revoke access to services.

– We’ve seen the government try to clamp down on protesting etc(even recently with new police powers), these IDs could be used as a way to snuff out dissidence in an authoritarian landscape.

Many countries have already had issues with them;

– In India for example the government and private entities accessed citizens’ data far beyond initial intent. Full names, addresses and ID numbers were leaked after a hack in 2018 as well.

– In China, the national digital ID and system expanded into monitoring citizen behaviour, restricting travel and access to services.

– In Kenya, rollout of the Huduma Namba ID system led to citizens being denied healthcare and education if they lacked registration.

– Swedish folk were locked out of their bank accounts temporarily and missed mortgage payments etc due to technical glitches.

– Security flaws in Estonians system led to criminals stealing the identity of thousands of people (and successfully impersonating them).

– Myanmar’s government used digital ID to track and “suppress” dissidents who were protesting against human rights abuses and the government blocking citizens from accessing the Internet.
