    Why would you allow a private company, a foreign one to offer digital identities?

      I mean, we let it handle payments, track our locations, carry around a microphone and camera, read our emails and texts, listen to our phone calls and track everything we do online.

      What’s one more thing at this point?

      We already have a semi privatised identity system with the PASS card scheme for proof of age, its government backed but the actual physical and digital IDs are provided by various public and private groups.
