This episode explores the global race between governments implementing centralized digital IDs that risk mass surveillance and privacy erosion, versus decentralized models emphasizing Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI). We detail the complex threats posed by non-interoperable systems and "Digital Twins" technology, which aggregates scattered digital footprints into detailed biometric profiles used for extensive behavioral tracking. Discover how cutting-edge tools like Verifiable Credentials (VCs) and Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) are designed to give individuals control through selective disclosure, minimizing data sharing and offering a viable defense against the global trend toward digital authoritarianism.
