To be fair, we all already use a national id with the social security numbers.
So pretty simply, the government would set up a SS number verification API, tech companies would call that, and use it to verify who you are.
It’s a terrible idea and I hate it, but that’s probably how it would work.
Except SS is a terrible form of authentication that is compromised already by the credit-reporting agencies for a significant fraction of American citizens.
Specifically by Equifax.
Great so only us citizens can use the internet?
What if they ban you from the internet? Should that even be possible if you’re not breaking the law?
This seems like the most anti American fascist thing I’ve heard in a while and that really says something.
Fuck that. We need to move away from using SSN for literally every-fucking-thing
It’s funny because the SS card explicitly states it shouldn’t be used for identification purposes.
