The Internet Protocol Identity Community Group has been launched: http://www.w3.org/community/ipid/ -------------------------------------------------- This group is for the discussion of assigning an IPv6 address for every person on Earth, so everyone has a digital identity. Each individual could use this to proxy or alias other identifiers, permanent or temporary, over different spans of their lifetime. Thus, a person they can manage their domain names, physical or email addresses, phone numbers, WebRTC address, and other contact info as they wish, flexibly maintaining an identity in a decentralized way not controlled by third-party commercial interests or even governments. This system could also be used for organizations, businesses, animals, or any other entity that needs an identity. This group may produce specifications. -------------------------------------------------- To join: http://www.w3.org/community/ipid/join If you do not have one already, you will need a W3C account to join: http://www.w3.org/community/account/request This is a community initiative.
