@AAKL@infosec.exchange the possible requirement of digital IDs was not lost on my after I made the post.
The issue is that digital IDs are not the panacea as advertised. As reported at Defcon last week, the North Koreans are masters of creating fake passports, national ID cards, often tied to real identities; or using stolen IDs.
If we are all required to enter our real IDs to access these platforms the attackers would enter fake IDs, and we would be back at the starting gate again.

@Walker@infosec.exchange Well, this doesn't help. It's like a hamster stuck on the wheel. Not to mention that the only people who think digital IDs are the answer are the ones pushing them for data collection and surveillance. It's almost sinister - like The Matrix.
