Digital Identity Wallets: How They Work and What Big Tech Is Hiding


Listen Later

Throw away your plastic driver's license - digital IDs have entered the chat!

In this episode, I spoke with Dr. Paul Ashley, the CTO of Anonyome Labs.

Paul explains how widespread online surveillance is, the evolution of digital identity from centralized to decentralized models, how digital wallets work, and what big tech doesn't want you to know!

Here are a few highlights from this episode:

  • Big tech's surveillance economy
  • Evolution of digital identity
  • Decentralized Identity
  • Global adoption of digital ID wallets - including in the USA!

I had no idea this was happening. More than 20 states in the USA are adopting digital driver's licenses!

It's fascinating to think of how digital IDs could be used personally and at work!

It's also scary to think of how some governments could abuse this technology.

Whatever you think, I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
