what's the practical alternative?

- bryanrasmussen 2y agopickpocket's paradise!
- vincnetas 2y agoBut it's not so scalable as online connected DB.
- reginald78 2y agoWouldn't this just result in my digitalid getting lost in the next equifax breech?
- immibis 2y agoDid your credit card get lost in the last one?
- reginald78 2y agoHow would I know one way or the other if it had? I don't have the same number anymore.
- advael 2y agoNot pretending a GUID constitutes a security measure in the first place? It's just not the right tool for the job in any sense
- mnau 2y agoDigital id card for every citizen? My id card can prove identity or sign a document and could for ~10 years. Estonia had it for over 20 years. Just give it to everyone. Today, it can likely be embedded in a cell phone instead of separate physical card.
