If we’re talking about a hard copy ID (passport, drivers license) that’s one thing. A digital ID over the internet is asking for trouble.

That's the reason I wrote what I wrote. everyone only knows what they need to know. How do you think a third entity would identify you?

Easy:
I don’t trust the government and private interests to come to an agreement that somehow benefits citizens more than their combined interests.

I'm not saying I'm for age verification. I'm just saying if it were for it, there'd be solutions.
What I wrote I did while being barely awake in five minutes. Sure it needs work. But there'd be ways to do it without a camera up your butt.

I doubt the concept of anonymised data. Companies and governments have bad incentives to know who you are, and collect data from brokers to make correlations and educated guesses.

But long story shortened - third parties are very much identifying each of us in staggeringly novel ways.

I'm not talking about fingerprinting.
