    So like, when do we get a government-run service to issue zero-knowledge proofs about us so companies have no reason to store stuff like this in the first place?

      Oh aye, I am the #1 government truster, they should “not record” where I visit and should be trusted to ignore my internet history

        If I had to choose between a government and a private entity to store my personal governmental records (e.g. age and name), I’d 100% choose the government first.

          easy to say, but that depends entirely on the government and company doesn’t it?

            Any government already has all of that information, so, no.

            By giving it to a company, you just increase the risks of info leakage.

            As always life is complicated.
            I am talking about my personal situation.

            ^(Do I really need to put a disclaimer to all posts, that mentions all comments are from my own view and might no apply to every situation in every country?)
