These are the right questions to ask. I suspect that if one were to follow the money behind who is pushing for this law, those questions could be answered.

- walterbell 4y agoSince Apple recently added the ability to store state-level identity documents in Apple Wallet (IF a state/country is on board), it's not a big leap to combine this with Face ID. If Apple can perform a digital attestation of a derived attribute, e.g. "older than 18", rather that disclosing name, DoB, address to the visited website, it would likely be well received. But at that point, we're a hair's breadth away from state-corporate fusion.
