@atomicpoet,

Regarding "Personal data is the new oil." [1], the #Fediverse will take us to a better place where "Personal data is the new electricity" conducted via hyperlinks [2].

Oil reflects the current extractive (and polluting) mindset that drives #Web20 #DataSilos and #SurveillanceCapitalism.

Electricity aligns with technological inflection that ushers in a new frontier :)

@kidehen @youid Also paging @darnell. This is a genuinely neat innovation. I love the idea of a digital wallet for IDs.

@kidehen @atomicpoet @youid Better than an $8/month ($11/month for Android or Apple sub) for a blue check mark auth.
