Re: Utah State-Endorsed Digital Identity (SEDI) legislation

Whats you goverment ID tho Nikolaos?

 See I can ask for it. You don’t want to show it? Ok I can decide to stop

It isn’t really any different from a service asking you.

There is no inherent obligation for a service provider to serve individuals.

The market will probably not pay for a service that  does not serve
individuals tho…
