I believe identity providers will become even more important in the future as a consequence and that there will be an arm race (hopefully) ending with most people providing them some kind of official id.

But can chill free speech and become a huge liability for whoever collects and verifies the IDs. One hack (say of the government ID database) would spoil the whole system.
