Digital ID
Digital ID is a ghost that must perpetually prove “this is you” to the deep sea of the internet. Claiming to protect user privacy, it also lays golden eggs called personal data. Under the banner of convenience touted by governments and corporations, it tags your every move in a tag factory born of convenience and desire for control, a symbol of self-denial. In the name of identity verification, people lock themselves behind small lattice gates, trading the illusion of freedom and anonymity. And what remains at the end is the merciless administrator that still demands two-factor authentication no matter how secure you think you are.
