Getting the populace to understand
what we can barely understand and
communicate
between ourselves
It’s a challenge…
Communicating the understanding and importance of internet identity

I just checked my visitors log and found a link from WIRED that mentions me.
While many websites do not collect names, addresses, Social Security numbers or other “personally identifiable information,” or PII, the information they do collect is extremely revealing. “They don’t need to know your name to know who you are,” Chester said.

Last week at the ITU-T meeting in Geneva there were some folks making the assertion that Identity was all about one’s credentials starting first and foremost with one’s birth certificate.
