Phil Booth has done a video explaining the Digital ID consultation and how the scheme relates to Gov.uk One Login. Well worth a watch and sharing with friends and family https://youtu.be/mC16RbBzd2Y?si=pCn6E2-m33z-US4E #DigtialID #privacy #no2id

Great work from my colleagues at @openrightsgroup exposing problems with Evisa scheme https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/evisa-visa-rules-uk-share-code-migrant-b2878011.html #DigtialID #evisa

If you are interested in attacks on E2EE, the online safety act and digital ID then this might well be the podcast episode for you https://vpetersson.com/podcast/S02E20.html #DigtialID #Privacy #onlinesafetyact

Hebden Bridge has lost a phone mast. No prior warning just everyone on some networks like O2 just losing signal overnight. But hey the Government wants us all to have digital ID so that’s alright even if we can no longer even access the internet! #rural #connectivity #DigtialID

“The first digital ID launches today” no wonder there is some misinformation when the public has zero idea what digital ID means or when it’s coming. Does the Government even know what they mean by this scheme?
Will it be federated as this press article claims or involve centralisation of data as the Labour briefing to MP states. I fear over time it will mean more and more function creep and data sharing. https://news.sky.com/story/the-first-digital-id-launches-today-13451263 #digtialID

Over in Manchester this evening for Big Brother Watch’s fringe event on Digital ID. Good to catch up with other organisations and individuals campaigning for civil liberties and privacy. #DigtialID #privacy #manchester

It appears a majorly of those of have made up their mind now oppose Digital ID. In addition to that those who oppose it are more likely to strongly oppose it. #DigtialID #polling

I keep hearing about Estonia’s ID system as a model for U.K. One key difference when considering this. The U.K. now has weaker data protection laws than EU GDPR due to the Data use and access act. We also have other laws which undermine privacy such as investigatory powers act, online safety act etc. This means even a technically similar system would now pose more risk to people in the U.K. #DigtialID #Estonia #Privacy
