New Forced Real ID
Big New Threat to Privacy
Warning:
Real ID is being forced upon US citizens
Flights
The Trump administration is forcing US citizens to get “Real ID” to fly domestically. A regular driver’s license will no longer be accepted. [3]
Thomas Massie
Representative Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, warned that the REAL ID may be implemented in an attempt to “control” Americans, quote:
“Real ID isn’t a database. It’s proof that your physical person matches an entry in the digital database. Its power & purpose will be realized when everyone complies, but not before.” [1]
Derrick Broze
As Journalist Derrick Broze warns, this is only the beginning, with establishing these types of digital IDs. Broze thinks the end-game is a digital ID to enter all aspects of our lives, like an “Everything app” similar to WeChat in China. Derrick Broze further stresses that eventually they will push for a digital ID to enter the internet. [4]
Whitney Webb
Journalist Whitney Webb of the Unlimited Hangout podcast stresses that Peter Thiel, who funded Donald Trump’s campaign, is getting huge lucrative contracts to do AI bio-metric surveillance. And digital IDs are a critical piece of this. [5]
ACLU
Even many on the left are also protesting. The American Civil Liberties Union has warned the law “would facilitate the tracking of data on individuals and bring government into the very center of every citizen’s life.” the organization has supported efforts to repeal the law, calling it a “bureaucratic nightmares for individuals.” [2]
My Opinion
My personal opinion is that the world is what we make it. So resist to the best of your ability. If you can use a Passport instead of Real ID, for even domestic air travel, then do so. There is no “line in the sand”, but a fight each step of the way. For freedom is in our minds, and not on government paper.
