EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:

The Mask-Off Moment for Digital Identity

https://newdesigncongress.org/en/note/2025/the-mask-off-moment-for-digital-identity/

> Now, as we prepare to publish, the polite façade of digital identity has shattered; every principal threat model we outlined in 2024 can now be observed in operation; some at pilot scale, others nationwide.
>
> In other words, all of the threats described in this report have materialised. Every single one.
>
> In my 12-year career, I have never, ever seen anything like it.

> No matter your perspective on any of these examples, I’m not here to debate your side. The sides don’t matter. Here’s what does: our digitised society was designed and built in a childlike “End of History”[26] bet, an unquestioning belief in an ideological fiction popularised after the Cold War, and on an assumption that liberal capitalist democracy had triumphed as the final form of human government.

> This is a system built on hopium, a fingers-crossed wish for stability, integration, and progress. Digital identity systems were architected inside this delusion, as if geopolitics, collapse, or technological misuse were things of the past. This is colossally wrong. The architecture of digital identity is indifferent to your ideology. It does not care which ’side’ you think you are on. I cannot stress this enough: you are vulnerable, and this will be used against you.
