Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Clive Bull on LBC to discuss the announcement by the UK government of the introduction of a compulsory smartphone based digital ID, which could be required when working, renting a property, and a lot more. What information will the ID store, what form will it take, who would have access, and do we want so much information about us centrally stored with the ever present danger of the database being hacked, and is it an unwarranted intrusion on our privacy and security?
Questions raised include
- What happens if you lose your smartphone that contains the ID app?
- What if you don't own or want a smartphone?
- What if future governments have more authoritarian intentions?
- What if you're homeless?
- Is this a creeping Big Brother?
- Are there other motives to these IDs?
- Can we minimise the data we currently share?
