So how is she going to make them non-anonymous in a way that businesses can properly verify identity? Does every single social media site need to have its own ID analysis system for every state-ID? I mean that seems like it would be ridiculously hard.
For that to be practical, they'd need something nation-wide, and probably digital.
So, does she want to suggest to her fanbase a national digital ID? How would htat go?
To be fair, we all already use a national id with the social security numbers.
So pretty simply, the government would set up a SS number verification API, tech companies would call that, and use it to verify who you are.
It's a terrible idea and I hate it, but that's probably how it would work.
Great so only us citizens can use the internet?
What if they ban you from the internet? Should that even be possible if you’re not breaking the law?
This seems like the most anti American fascist thing I’ve heard in a while and that really says something.
