Two things:
1. We are creating a two-tiered internet that will see people willing to give up their IDs having one experience while those who can’t, won’t, or don’t have them missing out on those experiences or being outright excluded from whole areas of the web2. Why you would be willing to give up your ID to web services that have such poor security in a time when identity is being weaponized by state actors is beyond me
@Ashedryden Ugh. Sharing in the TKTK Discord

You can see how this is leading down a very dark path, right? You don’t have to be a science fiction author to be able to extrapolate from here.

@Ashedryden I live in New York and decided to go without my phone. I was a few feet from my front door when I realized I couldn't get the bike share bike without the app. I signed up to get the keycard. After it arrived, I found it doesn't work on any bike stations.
I thought about how to navigate the world without a phone number. The only people who do that are either very wealthy, or homeless.

@AlSweigart I went to a protest without a phone and realized I couldn’t easily find out when buses come or pay for the fare because everything is so cash averse now

@Ashedryden TIL there was already an update to the "nobody knows you're a dog" cartoon. 11 years since the revision and it's still getting worse https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/irl-on-the-internet-no-one-knows-youre-doggo/

@Ashedryden Couldn't this be trivially bypassed using a deepfake setup (making the whole thing null and void)?

@Ashedryden Someone should make a biometric randomization app already, which takes your likeness and then change the core face metrics randomly.
