Logo STOPCOMMONPASS ๐Ÿ›‘ @org_scp 7h Kudos to @silkiecarlo for presenting a much stronger argument against Liina Vahtras on the subject of National ID in Britain. Estonia has always been a 'card-carrying' society. In Britain, we're not. We don't share the same principles or levels of trust. cityam.com/the-debate-will-dโ€ฆ The Debate: Will digital ID actually erode our civil liberties? Will Starmer's plan for digital ID actually erode our civil liberties? We put two experts head to head in this week's Debate. cityam.com STOPCOMMONPASS ๐Ÿ›‘ @org_scp 7h Estonia built their modern, sophisticated e-ID system for a nation of 1.3m people. It has also succumbed to security vulnerabilities & cyberattacks from bad actors. Britain simply does not have the capacity to emulate Estonia's model & operate it for 69m people. STOPCOMMONPASS ๐Ÿ›‘ @org_scp 7h Estonia is not a arguable role model for this type of system in modern, data-breach Britain. The UK state has had over 20 years to improve cybersecurity & reduce data-breaches, but its systemic failures have kept on coming & at a huge cost to our society. Oct 1, 2025 ยท 8:46 AM UTC
