Hi Katie, I agree that this would be an important use-case, but in the context of Personalization, I am also curious about using this as a form of 'manifest' or authenticated "preferences" mechanism: more of a technology to technology communication versus a technology to agency (local government services) communication. I'm thinking more along the lines of what Gregg Vanderheiden is pursuing with GPII <https://gpii.net> and more specifically https://gpii.net/content/auto-personalization & https://gpii.net/content/private-preference-permission-system. Manu, does that make sense?
