But you do have a choice. No one is takin away your physical IDs. But vast majority of population is begging for a safe digital ID solution.

Cash is still mostly accepted while majority of transactions are digital.

Absolutely not. The population is fine with the status quo.

Huh? Maybe in Europe, yes where digital ID has been around for _decades_.

In US tho? You can get SSN of literally everyone and that's somehow enough to ID yourself.
