PROBLEMS & FACTS
- For every citizen it is clear, that his/her travelling passport is validated in the own country and nowhere else.
- For every citizen it is clear, that this document (passport) has a great value and identifies him/her in a legally valid manner
- In daily (offline) life every citizen uses at least 4 different identities (ID) in different situations in his/her lifetime.
- legally valid - ID (governed by state, eg. passport)
- proofed-ID (act of verifying an ID document by someone and saving these ID-data for eg. Telco-Contract, imatriculation, etc Thus this verified ID becomes a „proofed-ID“)
- self-claimed-ID ( data that we communicate to other parties without verification by these parties eg. Hello, my name is Donald Duck)
- anonymous-ID (Hi, Buddy! whereby „Buddy“ is simply authenticated by repeatedly recognition of someones face, voice, behavior, etc)
- This „ID- Behavior“ has been formed over decades and is the base of social interaction worldwide.
- After 15 years of commercialized internet we still have not managed to transfer offline ID-Behavior to the DIGITAL LIFE
instead we
- exchange personal data based on „self-claimed-ID“ or „anonymous-ID“ for registrations to web accounts which are then governed by US firms outside the EU
- make this data available in order to „supposedly“ legally binding agreements (Terms and conditions)
- share secrets (Passwords) for beeing able to authenticate against these webaccounts
- are landing in a password-hazzle (Ø 30 webaccounts/online user in EU)
- share these pesronal data with service providers outside the EU, mainly US.
- THIS LEADS TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE EU IS LOSING ITS CITIZENS TO THE US et.alt.
PROPOSAL - Establishing national managed Identity Federations (EU-28) in order to
- increase online security
- enable data protection and control by the citizens
- facilitate portability from one to another account enabling „right to forget“
- transferring the offline ID-Behavior-model to digital life by
- connecting the „legally valid-ID = eID of country“, „proofed-ID“, „self-claimed-ID“ and the „anonymous-ID“ with ONE digital „CITIZEN- USERNAME“.
- Strengthening authentication in common by 2 & multi-factors using the phone and its possibilities generating or beeing this second-factor
