Is the UK government building an ID system by stealth with the gov.uk wallet?
Companies in the digtial ID sector think so.
Creating a portal that all our interactions with government have to go through could evolve into national identity database with considerable implications for our privacy.

@licho @osman provide evidence the code @signalapp released is actually being deployed.
- Whereas @monocles has #ReproducibleBuilds to the point that @fdroidorg literally pulls their
gitand builds it from source.
Not to mention pushing a #Shitcoin-#Scam (#MobileCoin) disqualifies #Signal per very design!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJoO2uWrX1M
- Given the collection of #PII like #PhoneNumbers, the ability to restrict functionality based off those and the fact that #Signal is subject to #CloudAct make it inherently not trustworthy.
And don't even get me started on the fact.it's not sustainable to run it as a #VCmoneyBurningParty!
- As soon as Signal becomes a problem, it will be taken offline, and due to the fact that it is #centralized, #proprietary, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider that's trivial for authorities.
Same as identifying users: They already got a #PhoneNumber which in many juristictions one can't even obtain without #ID legally, thus making it super easy to i.e. find and locate a user. Even tze cheapest LEAs can force their local M(V)NOs to #SS7 a specific number...
- All these are unnecessary risks, that could've been avoided, but explicitly don't even get remediated retroactively!
Again: Signal has a #Honeypot stench, and you better learn proper #E2EE, #SelfCustody and #TechLiteracy because corporations can't pull the 5th [Amendment] on your behalf!
#HotTake: Every #human should be entitled by international #law to free, unseizeable #ID documents in the form of a travel #passport to evidence their #identity and have #FreedomOfMovement as well as a chance to #flee.
- It should also be illegal to demand #biometrics like #Fingerprints which are trivial to forge anyway!
Why?
- Because in past and in present day denying the issue and/or confiscation of #passports has been used and abused solely to commit #democide, #genocide and #hatecrime both #opposition groups and #minorities.

Am Wochenende das erste mal Langstrecke mit dem gebrauchten #ID4pro gemacht. 500km hin und wieder zurück. Eigentlich nur einmal "Ärger" mit defekten Ladesäulen gehabt, ein paar Kilometer weiter waren aber schon die nächsten.
Was aber auffällt ist die fehlende Akku-Vorkonditionierung bei den alten #ID Modellen. Auf der Hinfahrt bei 3 Grad von 15% auf 70% in 40 Minuten, auf der Rückfahrt bei 11 Grad von 11% auf 80% in 32 Minuten. Aber jetzt kommt ja der Frühling.

“Is there going to be pressure for the app to become the portal that you have to interact with the government through?
One future problem is it ends up evolving into a national identity database where every interaction is tracked, which has considerable privacy implications.”
ORG's @JamesBaker on the UK government's proposals for a gov.uk app and wallet.
The Guardian · Gov.uk app could lead to ‘mandatory ID scheme’, claim privacy groups
@lucasmz @Avitus @david_chisnall the benefit of #XMPP+#OMEMO is that there are several providers, including free options...
All #PII incl. #PhoneNumbers can and will be abused by existing governments and if users don't pay, then they are the product and their data is the one to be sold.
- #KYC IS THE #IllicitActivity WHEN IT COMES TO #ComSec!
After all, you have the same cost problem with phone numbers. Even if one doesn't pay per line/number and never pay for calls and texts, they still have to top it up to extent validity.
- And again: It's way easier for a government to demand an ID for a #SIM that works in networks around their country (i.e. #Turkey demands registration on a per-#IMEI - basis *with #ID) than to tunnel XMPP+OMEMO through @torproject over #EDGEland-speed #2G networks.
Plus you relying an unfixably insecure #Telephony makes a system inherently unsafer than it needs to be...
- This is how people get caught!
Also #Signal is able and willing to use said PII to restrict and ban users and if I were some dissident in Cuba or North Korea or even just Eritrea or Yemen I'd not rely on non-enforcement of #OFAC / #USML / #ITAR since Signal can obviously distinguish & identify accounts by virgue if their #PhoneNumber!
- Always think "How can this be weaponized against someone?" when it comes to #privacy!

"[...] easy to use solutions that are at the same time private and secure. [...]"
- The fact that @signalapp requires #PII like a #PhoneNumber which more often than not cannot be legally acquired anonymously makes it not #private.
It is easier, faster, cheaper and overall simpler to get someone setup with #XMPP + #OMEMO espechally if they don't have a #PhoneNumber and/or #ID to acquire a #SIM.
And if you go and say, "Just buy a [insert country here] [e]SIM!" and expect #TechIlliterates without a #CreditCard, #PayPal or other means of #OnlinePayment to fiddle around with some #eSIM if not having to get some #eSIMcard because they can only afford to maintain one SIM and can't spend triple-digits on a new devices then you completely missed the point!
- I can much faster and easier get TechIlliterates setup show them around - either in a @cryptoparty@mastodon.earth / @cryptoparty@chaos.social / #CryptoParty - style #classroom / #seminar or 1:1 tutoring than I can legally acquire and activate a new SIM in #Germany [since 07/2017]...
It's not that I expect anyone to get #TechLiterate within minutes, but similar to setting up a cordless DECT phone it's something one has to do once in 5 years and just have them put the password in a safe spot to retain...
Point is that #Signal #WontFix their setup and that was evidently clear even before @Mer__edith succeeded #MoxieMarlinspike: Their entire operation has a distinct #CryptoAG stench as it's an #unsustainable #VCmoneyBurning party!
- #CloudAct and the #NOBUS hegemony ain't something that just got executed now (neither was #GDPR & #BDSG!)...
A counterexample on how this could've been done are #Tor, #eMail and other truly #OpenSource as in #MultiVendor & #MultiProvider standards.
NOTHING compells Signal to demand PII, run a #Shitcoin #Scam aka. #MobileCoin that even seasoned #TechLiterates and #CryptoBros can't setup properly, and in fact Signal using phone numbers makes it trivial to discriminate against users and easier for them to identify them!
If my reasoning didn't resonate with you, then try helping i.e. undocumented migrants aka. "#SansPapier|s" to get setup with it without violating laws and/or ToS and/or needing an imported SIM which I'm shure most folks don't have on hand!
Whereas it's trivial to get people setup on one of many XMPP servers I've personally tested!
- Not to mention clients like @monocles / #monoclesChat and @gajim / #gajim are way more user-friendly and unlike Signal can also work perfectly fine over #Tor, including #OnionServices as endpoints.
AFAIK Signal doesn't even have an #OnionService / .onion for their Website, much less any #API enpoints to use it with!
- Them relying on #ClownFlare is just something that makes them even more #sus as there is no legitimate reason to use a #RogueISP like that.
You're free to also provide evidence and supporting data to your arguments, rather then neighsaying against proven to be more secure and reliable [by virtue of decentralization] options like XMPP+OMEMO and/or #PGP/MIME.
- What gets my blood boiling is the constant #disinfo by Signal Fanboys like @rysiek who sell it like #DigitalSnakeoil akin to #AntivirusSoftware, because it's at best "#TechPopulism" and at worst will mislead "TechIlliterates" with a false sense of security, which in turn puts more users at risk.
The proper fix is to actually assess the situation and acknowledge the risks and limitations as well as the very nature of communications, which means upgrading later is exponentially more painful, thus getting people properly setup once is way easier.
- Just because WE [ or rather @rysiek in this case ] rather privilegued enough to not be hatecrimed in their current location doesn't mean this is the case for everyone. And having places like Signal rely on a "#CDN" is just another red flag to me because questions like this one just don't arise with monocles.chat as people can just exercise proper #SelfCustody and just use Tor!
Speaking of #monocles: That business is at least #sustainable because it's funded by users (€2 p.m.) which they can pay anonymously
gruene.socialMax L. (@max@gruene.social)@kkarhan@infosec.space Sorry but no, the correct solution is to push for easy to use solutions that are at the same time private and secure. Hiding privacy and security behind a veil of "you need to know" is discrimination of people that are not able (either mentally, physically or monetary) to gain that knowledge.
The correct move here is for @signalapp@mastodon.world and any other service to fix this and for legislators to enact laws enforcing proper security and privacy by design.
