9 days agoI’m totally digging the sentiment, but I struggle to understand the practical aspects. What use is this ID, if realistically no institution is gonna accept it? What’s stopping me from claiming that i’m Marie Skłodowska-Curie? How can I trust that someone presenting me with such an ID is a freedom-loving stateless refugee, and not a criminal faking their identity?
Okay, i found a use case 😉 Where I live, you can get anonymous STI testing, and at the reception they identify you by first name and date of birth that you filled out online – but since it’s communicated verbally, everyone in the waiting room can hear.
That’s where Memdeklaro could come in: they already trust whatever name and DoB you give them verbally, so they might just as well trust a piece of plastic that’s conveniently available in your wallet.
