I think govt IDs are the only way to go, this is where other countries are going and large swaths of Americans would not trust random groups for this. Very easy to use misinformation to sow false doubts and grandiose claims
The world that needs to be dismantled is the one oligarchs, wallstreet, and cryptos fascism'd on us. The financialization of every aspect of life needs to be stopped and reverted to fairness. So many grifter middlemen taking a slice of everything and making my life more expensive
- AquariuOS 9mo agoHard agree on Worldcoin — that's a single point of failure with a TED talk. You're pragmatically correct that government IDs are the global trend. The structural tension I keep running into is conflict of interest: if the government controls the root credential, it also controls who is allowed to participate in verified reality. This isn't hypothetical — it's the exact architecture of China's social credit system. The credential layer and the oversight layer are the same thing, owned by the same party. AquariuOS is designed for the fail case: what happens when the government issuing the credential is the very entity the system needs to hold accountable? If the root of trust and the subject of oversight share the same owner, the symmetry collapses. I don't have a clean answer to the issuance problem — it's honestly the hardest problem in the document. But I'm wary of building truth infrastructure that can be unplugged by the entity it's supposed to watch. How are you seeing other countries handle that tension between state identity and independent auditability?
