Loading ...UK Begins Rolling Out Digital IDs for Citizens to ‘Prove Their Status’
The (UK) Labour government is introducing a digital ID program targeting 250,000 military veterans under a “Veteran Card” initiative.
The dystopian plan is being pitched as a means of simplifying access to services, such as NHS healthcare, housing support via the Op Fortitude program, job opportunities, discounted public transportation, and other benefits.
However, critics see the rollout as a precursor to implementing a broader, controversial digital ID system for all citizens. They claim veterans are being used as “guinea pigs” to normalize digital IDs, a concept many oppose due to privacy and surveillance concerns.
