NOTE ON DIGITAL ID From [REDACTED]
Last show you covered the story of Australia looking to restrict social media access to allow only people over the age of 16 to access services such as FaceBook, X, Tiktok, Instagram, etc. I work in the field of digital identity in Canada and I have some expertise in this realm. This is a common story across the developed world where 'harms' are increasingly being associated with online activity. Digital Age Verification is one potential solution to making the internet more age appropriate. This can include access to social media, pornography, gambling, and purchases of age restricted goods online such as alcohol, tobacco and cannabis.
You are right to be concerned that digital ID and legislation like Australia's can lead to a surveillance state. Many and most digital ID systems, whether government managed or corporately managed do enable surveillance. The common phase of "verifying you are who you say you are online" is often accomplished by tying a unique identifier to the individual as recorded in some data base. This unique identifier can be linked to your government ID, driver's license number, social security number, medical number, credit card number, bank card number and so on. Further these can be associated with your online use such as cookies, IP addresses and MAC addresses. We are already in the surveillance state because of what is called the Mosaic Effect: The mosaic effect occurs when ‘disparate items of information… take on added significance when combined with other items of information.
I did a quick read of the Australian Digital ID website. It uses a federated ID model using OpenID Connect, which is a wide spread standard. In this model the ID provider, which could be FaceBook, Google, (aka Social Logon) or the national government, provides the ID to the user, and 3rd parties rely on the user to authenticate using that core ID to login to their services. This model enables surveillance by default and the ID Provider technically has the ability to know where the ID is being used. However, these companies or governments may or may not have a policy which says they don't access that data, except under specific circumstances. Murky!
Alternatively, there are other forms of digital ID emerging and leveraging open source protocols and software that are "privacy preserving". Among these, there are gradations of the level of privacy being preserved. So the devil is in the details with digital ID. Many are being marketed as digital credentials held in digital wallets on your smart phone. This [REDACTED].
The Guardian had a headline with member of the Australian parliament stating the government cannot compel the social media companies to make users hand over personal ID document. This is tricky, because with some approaches, technically you will not need to show any personal identity document. A concept known as Zero Knowledge Proof uses advanced cryptography to prove a statement such as "I am over the age of 19 or 21" using a digitally signed credential containing your birthdate, but without actually sharing your birthdate of any other data from your government ID.
We have the technology today that enables you to prove you are old enough to visit PornHub, while PornHub will only know that it was presented with an ID credential from an acceptable government issuer and that birthdate was sufficiently long ago. Further, the ID issuing government would not know when or where you used this ID credential. The most privacy preserving technologies are often not used because they do not meet certain industry standards such as NIST, for approved cryptographic algorithms.
There is currently a long standing battle in the digital ID industry between governments, companies, standards bodies who all are taking different approaches. The type [REDACTED]. Hope this information helps the show. Happy to tell you more.
