Millenials will lap it up. They just have to wait for enough of us to die, as we are the last generation who will resist such things.
They already did it. This is the unveiling plan. They are trying to figure out how to do this without regular people burning down their facilities.
Demo rats will never let it happen if the first item is required.
Here’s what happens. Leftist private businesses create a plan to control the people, while government takes note and says and does nothing.
When the plan is running well, government steps in, little by little, with the final goal of usurping the entire plan for its own needs.
Then we wake up (or not) and realize we are in a totalitarian fascist state.
Take a look at the ChiCom social scoring system and you’ll see what they have in mind.
Mastercard is hurting. Visa is killing them. I was on a project at Washington Mutual bank about 15 years ago to switch from Visa to Mastercard to save money. I then went on to another company after that contract on a PCI (Payment Card Industry) contract. Even though they were first, I was amazed to learn, on the first contract, just how far MasterCard had fallen.
This is an attempt to get some market share. It may or may not work. Washington Mutual went under, so that didn’t help them much. Even on my contract I called them a “dead bank walking”, but didn’t share that with anyone there.
Back in high school (graduated in 1972) my friends and I would discuss all sorts of things similar to this. I remember people saying things like “PEOPLE WILL NEVER ACCEPT THAT!”
To which I always replied, “What you mean is that THIS GENERATION will never accept that.”
And here we are.
We should call in the French.
Yeah, but with the push for motor voter registration, BOOM! Drivers license, voter ID. Citizen? That doesn’t count apparently.
Universal digital identities, or a whole slew of digital identities all over the world. What’s the difference?
In either of the cases, you’re still being required to show identity of some sort. It’s either going to be using a single ‘digital identity’ or using many different identities, depending upon who, what, where, when, why you need to show one of your identities.
A single one just replaces all of the many different instances of identities.
The people who would fear them most would be liberals, who don’t want voter Id for anyone.
I myself am not fond of being tracked online or offline. I cherish my privacy. However, we’ve already gone down the roads allowing privacy rights violations.
Perhaps there needs to be stipulations as one of the characteristics in the universal id thing, like who is allowed or not to use some or any or all of the info pertaining to one’s id. For example, I might not want a supermarket to have access to my e-mail or to my Facebook id or to my DNA profile. Universal can mean the ultimate in privacy violations, so, that universal may have to be programmed with many constraints, all of which should/would be controlled by each person.
Sounds all well and good until you realize that your entire life will be for sale to anybody, including pedophiles stalking your kids.
GPDR sounds like a good idea compared to what corporates have in store for us.
The cultural war against socialism/globalism/communism/progressivism pits a free and open society against benign slavery. When elite masters achieve an unbridgeable chasm between their caste and the masses they control the war will have been lost.
The Trump vision is of a genuinely egalitarian society in which wealth is not restricted to a designated class but is readily accessible to anyone capable of achieving it on their own merits. Those who oppose him view wealth as a zero sum game, a limited pie that can be sliced in a limited number of pieces. They achieve not through production and innovation creating new resources but by the manipulation of existing resources. The Wall Street vs Main Street battle is just that.
Wall Street has created wealth by the manipulation of financial systems, not by the production of anything. They have sucked the marrow of wealth out of industry and put it in their gambler’s stake.
And I’ll bet they can implant this digital identity under the skin in your hand or forehead so you always have it with you. Where ya do heard this before?
Should be where have I heard this before
When it comes to money and commerce, the motivation is clearly there to be sure people are who they say they are.
Voting? Not so much
Important matter.

+1000 Very Well said!
The fundamental problem that they have not solved is maintenance. First the registration step where people have to prove who they are. It's generally burdensome with a physical mail step or use of sensitive data like SSN. Second, when you lose your digital ID or it is compromised, then you have to essentially repeat the registration step. Either that or they keep backups (e.g. escrowed private keys) which is a fatal security flaw.
Soeaking of security, this will be no more secure than the weakest link. There are several third parties involved creating potential weak links.
Regular French people are showing backbone, aren’t they?
