  Even if we all were willing to make that trade, how?

    MyGovID/DigitalID (maybe as SSO) is my bet; a Google account linked to one of these two government services.

      How’s that going to stop someone with a VPN?

        It won’t.

        This is how I see ‘giving up a little privacy’ looking. Legitimate/compliant users will link their accounts, the government & Google both enhance their tracking, and the rest of us will abandon our existing accounts (if we have one) and skip out via VPN to a region without this requirement.
