    Honestly? State ID is better than the current solution which is giving Thiel-affiliated companies photo and other data.

    Ideally I’d rather have a governments provided digital ID that’s more secure and just gives the company limited metadata instead of full ID info provided from gov’t to company. Put in rules requiring warrants or subpoenas for lookups.
