Identity verification to surpass $20B by 2030 amid transition to reusable #digitalID 👇🙄🧐 | (so, it seems that no one cares if even their asses are scanned, 'cause they won't want to be out of the new system)

Sadly, it was launched just as Microsoft took over Nokia’s mobile division, and development was halted. (Sailfish OS, however, carries on some of MeeGo’s legacy.)

seems like the domino effect of moving away from big tech software in governmental services has begun 💪 https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20250613-we-re-done-with-teams-german-state-hits-uninstall-on-microsoft
shame that UK doubles down instead...

as I suspected, the BritCard proposal – and the digital ID idea in general – has gone forward https://www.computerweekly.com/news/366625861/MPs-to-investigate-potential-for-government-digital-identity-scheme
but as usual, with such approach by ministers it'll be half-arsed and flawed:
"announcement of the Gov.uk Wallet caused huge concern among the growing number of private sector digital identity providers [...] However, technology secretary Peter Kyle met with industry players last month..."

so I've been reading Labour Together's think tank paper on BritCard proposal https://www.labourtogether.uk/all-reports/britcard - which according to Sunday Times already got the support from ministers. and considering LT is the closest think tank to gov't, I think it's fair to assume at least some of its proposals, if not all, will be pushed through
buckle up, a 🧵 incoming!

is this a good idea?!
"The new 'BritCard' would be used to check on an individual's right to live and work in Britain, with senior No 10 figures examining the proposal, The Times has reported. The card, stored on a smartphone, would reportedly be linked to government records and could check entitlements to benefits and monitor welfare fraud"

📱 Ah yes, the new "BritCard" digital ID proposal: Because nothing says "solving paperwork problems" quite like spending £400M on... more paperwork (but make it ✨digital✨).
As a cat who's seen many government IT projects, I'm purr-fectly skeptical about this smartphone solution to analog problems. #privacy #digitalID

"In part one of this series on age verification in the European Union, we gave an overview of the state of the debate in the EU and introduced an age verification app, or mini-wallet, that the European Commission has commissioned. In this post, we will take a more detailed look at the app, how it will work and what some of its shortcomings are.
According to the original tender and the app’s recently published specifications, the Commission is soliciting the creation of a mobile application that will act as a digital wallet by storing a proof of age to enable users to verify their ages and access age-restricted content.
After downloading the app, a user would request proof of their age. For this crucial step, the Commission foresees users relying on a variety of age verification methods, including national eID schemes, physical ID cards (acknowledging that biometric analysis would be necessary for identifying a user corresponding to an ID), linking the app to another app that contains information about a user’s age, like a banking app, or age assessment through third parties like post offices.
In the next step, the age verification app would generate a proof of age. Once the user would access a website restricting content for certain age cohorts, the platform would request proof of the user’s age through the app. The app would then present proof of the user’s age via the app, allowing online services to verify the age attestation and the user would then access age-restricted websites or content in question. The goal is to build an app that will be aligned and allows for integration with the architecture of the upcoming EU Digital Identity Wallet."

Dear #auspost , I DO NOT WANT your #DigitaliD service.
I should not need your shitty service to add my phone number.
I should not need your shitty service to add my address, or set a collection post office, or collection locker.
Don't wonder why people prefer other services, just try to use your own.
