It's such a dangerous technological "advancement". Something that will be promoted as being for our convenience, or greater security, will no doubt turn out to be the complete opposite. I urge all your followers to push back in these areas, maintain that freedom to say "no", especially against the current drive for digital ID services. Yes, it might be being setup and run by your Government. No, that doesn't mean your identity is safe in their hands! Our authorities can't even manage to empty the bins, do you really trust them to keep your details safe?! And how long will it be before the technology is so advanced that we can no longer rely on an image ("photo") or moving picture clip ("video") as "evidence" because we cannot be sure it hasn't been computer-generated and we cannot drill down into the file details to ascertain the credentials.
As little as you may trust the government to safely look after your data, there are countless private sector organisations with sickening amounts of info on all of us too, just waiting to be hacked or sold on to third parties with precious little oversight!
Indeed, we've sleepily drifted into such precarious positions having fallen for the concept of convenience in connectivity. Sure, it's a bit handy to be able to remotely control my central heating from my smartphone. But suddenly that app has a heap of data about the temperature settings and timings and therefore how many hours my boiler has been fired-up to heat the house. This is perhaps (so far) not nefarious. Bit when the idiocy of climate change net zero really bites (we're only just witnessing the beginnings of this lunacy) this data will be used against us to control or to profit.
