A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was under the impression that Digital IDs are not a picture you bring up and hand to LE - it's a RFID token transfer that you tap to authenticate on a reader. That doesn't mean that there won't be LE officers who will bully people, or that people won't be smart enough to recognize that the picture on their phone isn't their ID, but that not how digital IDs (are supposed to) work.
