I start by thanking @crypto.piotr for sending me the link to this wonderful post. Beforehand I apologize for having skipped your previous memo, but I'm saving the semester at the university and well the time is literally nothing between deliveries and partial ...
Going to what really matters, wow, is awesome all the information and the great research you did @libertyacademy my most sincere congratulations and standing applause since I know that doing something like that takes a lot of time. Impressive the truth, and it is that if I have always said that great advances take great responsibility, because this step literally the fence.
It does not seem strange to me that you say that biometric control is used for this type of purpose, but if it is true that it makes safer / easier to do the session, behind that curtain what you justified hides, and that data they are literally worth gold since nobody has the same footprint as anyone (applies for face patterns, iris reading, etc).
What makes it a great double-edged sword and why many people would be compromised, because of sharing that data with third parties, who says that they do not see others apart from them, and even more as you justified all those systems of control that would have at their disposal a large database only by making a simple click on "I accept the terms and conditions" (which usually as you said nobody reads).
It is worrying to know something like that, since (without going into conspiracy follies, but being real) who frees us that currently have a certain amount of information from us and that this is only a check to corroborate and fill empty fields missing (footprint fingerprint in this case) and not in other countries (I guess if there are) but at least here in my (Venezuela) there is a biometric system, which to make use (registration) of this they ask for your personal data from A to the Z ...
As you say there are many red flags out there and I think the most prudent thing would be to get away quickly and without looking back as it can be a big trap and such a great trojan horse that they are simply selling us as something wonderful and innovative ...
Personally I would like to continue reading about the progress of this network but I know that perhaps over time it will be more difficult to find more information to give all the control they have over the users, and that many may see a similar amount of mess that surrounds them. of this, but if your progress will be important to know in which direction and how much speed will move all this.
Thanks to those who took the time to read my comment (something extensive), and I do not leave without first wishing you a good day / afternoon / evening, God bless you.
Thank you for accepting my invitation and for your valuable comment @jjqf
Yours, Piotr
