Friend sent me this from NY Long Island paper:

While NYS DMV says the Mobile IDs are safe, some critics argue the digital driver's license poses personal privacy and security concerns.

Digital IDs are not yet widely accepted as proof of identity. More than 25 states have adopted or are moving toward adopting the virtual IDs.

The digital IDs can be accessed by cellphones to quickly identify the holder while traveling, at bars, stores that sell liquor and tobacco products, doctor's offices & more - as long as the business decides to accept them. More than 20 airports accept the ID including NYs Kennedy & LaGuardia.

Since then, social media has lit up with concerns that the virtual IDs will serve an authoritarian government at the cost of personal privacy, including calling digital IDs "deep state psyops."

The conservative Rebel News website is pushing a petition claiming digital IDs "call for invasive collection of biometric markers, location data, banking information and vaccination records... digitization will surely have dire consequences for our lives as governments assert more power over us."

But the concern is broader. The NY Civil Liberties Union alerted the DMV about "urgent concerns" five months before the state announced the program. The group called for investigation, public debate and a full balancing of benefits and costs of the program before it was made public. "Without public debate or discernible legal and technical.

The company contracted to provide Mobile ID is Idemia Identity and Security USA, part of a French-based global company. Idemia has several contracts with the state for facial recognition, fingerprinting and other security programs.

The NYCLU's concern isn't just what Mobile ID can do now, but what in can do in the near future, said Daniel Schwarz, senior privacy and technology strategist. "The technology needs to be open sourced, revealing its full capabilities, and that state legislation is needed to provide safeguards."

Time after Time after Time decade after decade Californians keep re-electing these woke Democrat lunatics like Gavin Newscum and this crooked idiot mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass.

They have completely ignored repeated calls for them to do the things necessary to make sure that they had enough water and firefighting assets to fight fires and to mitigate the fire risk by managing their land in a way that reduces it. This moron mayor Karen Bass cut $18 million out of the fire department's budget and used it to line her own pockets and the pockets of her partners in crime, then gets caught during the fires taking a taxpayer funded trip to Africa after promising in her campaign that she would not go abroad but focus on the city. These people should be prosecuted and jailed.

California has the highest taxes of any state in the country yet after decades of being warned that a catastrophe would happen if they didn't start cleaning up the fire risk, somehow that money just disappears on waste, fraud, corruption and abuse and none of it was done.

They had plenty of money to be a sanctuary state for illegals, and pay for needles and drugs for the drug addicts so that they wouldn't feel offended, and to go into the pockets of these crooked Democrat politicians and they're cronies under the guise of "Climate Change," but nothing to protect the people who were paying all the bills including their outrageous salaries. The woman who was supposed to be in charge of the water availability in the empty fire hydrants gets $700,000 a year! That's almost twice as much as the President of the United States! And what the hell was she doing?

Now they want the federal government to bail them out? Should you and I be forced to pay for this insanity only to allow them to continue this outrageous Democrat scam when we have no say and how they run their state?

I say you don't get a dime until you elect a government that isn't comprised of nothing but corruption and the lunatic left.
