The Digital ID provides government the ability to track, analyze, predict, and control a person’s private activities. It is the antithesis of individual freedom, and will not require an implantable chip as many have feared for decades. Evidence clearly shows that Biometrics, such as fingerprints and facial scans, will do the job much more efficiently. And the aftermath of the COVID lockdown shows us how it will be deployed.
During the COVID era, Governments said that masks were recommended, while private companies said, “No mask, no entry.” And the public overwhelmingly complied, but not with an over-reaching government, they complied with the grocery store to buy food, the airlines to travel, and their own banks to access money.
Looking back it is quite clear, the COVID lockdowns provided an opportunity to beta test digital ID compliance through private company mandates, and helped normalize the use of QR scans and facial pics for entry into private businesses.
And it proved to be a success. Now we are seeing the same techniques being used with the roll-out of the Digital ID.
The gold standard for biometric regulation was written in 2008 as the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, and is being replicated all over the United States. It mandates that private entities obtain written consent before collecting biometrics, disclose their policies, and destroy data after a set period. And most importantly, it exempts government entities entirely, allowing state and federal government to collect and utilize biometric data while passing the liability to private corporations.
