Like I discussed on nostr:nprofile1qqsgt0d4sa0pz0wvn9yck36xxezf3qhwzksu0q254vruqed5wvuavuspzfmhxue69uhky6t5wd6xzcmt9eshquqpz3mhxue69uhkymrpwd68ytnxxaazu7re0gr80m5k years ago: the Gov may be centralized, but it's data and operations are highly distributed AND fragmented.

This fragmentation has acted a buffer for freedom that has prevented the Gov from efficiently carrying out it's tyrannical impulses.

#DigitalIdentity *unifies* data across Gov functions, indexing everything off legal identiy. This makes Gov 100x more efficient; it can be expanded with computers instead of people.

For a glimpse into the future, look to Beijing. #Palantir is being rolled into place for next gen governance; a social credit system that displaces laws on paper.

Soon, every desirable location in the physical and digital world will be gated by social credit, and every action taken by subjects will be registered to their #DigitalIdentity so that it can be traversed and processed by AI scoring.

This is the #GreatReset.

One encouraging thing is that more people are seeing it coming.

"Department of Government Efficiency"

The writing has been on the wall for a while now

Movement passports.

Yes.

How does decentralized social media like Nostr fit in with this plan? I'm assuming they could scrape here but is it worth it? Or is the assumption they are only doing this in legacy social media?

#Nostr eliminates any explicit #DigitalIdentity gating.

As for attribution of speech and payments to legal identity, Palantir would have to use implicit heuristics to attempt to determine who is doing what.

Only defense is VPN and careful privacy techniques with your sats. I don't suspect it's too difficult to figure out who is doing what as it stands right now.

You need to be extremely careful. A single picture, a clip of your voice, an online purchase you were public about, may be enough to link you to your legal identity with a high degree of confidence

Just relistened to your 2021 appearances in TFTC earlier this year. With the news of Palantir last week, your predictions four years ago are coming alive. Post your updated great reset /privacy stack!

Those conversations were life changing for me.

Same!

You think states will push back at all?

Texas is not pushing back on this, for they passed it not too long ago.

If it goes into effect (Apple and Google are ironically pushing back), it happens in January.

Great analysis. Exactly!

People underestimate how much government inefficiency has protected us from government in the past. That will soon be over.

There is hope though, because many of these inefficiencies were intentional and artifacts of checks and balances and the rule of law.

We need to update such societal patterns of self-organization fast enough to meet the challenges ahead, but not too fast to make them worse (which is what is happening right now, imo).

The time that Orwell described very well is coming. I think the solutions are cryptography and proof of work with obviously decentralization
