It's a good idea that you will have to expand along the lines being discussed here. This way your benefits continue and you also continue as a real person.

@DenoPenno Hahaha! Ok you can put your cattle prod away amigo! I'll start with a question! How easy is it to fake a real ID? How secure are the databases that contain that information? We've recently seen a rogue president give a squad of hackers the keys to the buildings and the "secure" databases of multiple government agencies. And even from a basement in New Jersey or the outskirts of Moscow, is there such a thing as an un-hackable system?

That being said, I'd like to live in a society where no one feels like they can get away with doing bad things under cover of anonymity.

@Flyingsaucesir I agree, but on Facebook there are maybe 9 Jennifer Aniston's. I'm sure all of them have been vetted by Meta and they have the same info. This does not make them all real. What is the next step? Seeing that they really are women and might have possibly had facial surgery.

If we are to have Real ID at all then we must start with Real ID. Without it your Social Security is at risk.

@DenoPenno I was a bit surprised to find out how many people there are in the USA who have the same first and last names as me. Couldn't all those Jennifer Anistons be different people?

The Real ID that I have is Missouri state ID. I'm working on Login.gov now because it will be a handy thing to have. I'm not moving but if I did move right now it would be next to impossible to set up direct deposit at my new bank without Login.gov. Some people just do not get this. The first step in Missouri is to get the Real ID driver's license (or non-driver) because very soon now you cannot fly or go into a government building without it. It does not cost anything and my neighbor turned it down because she said she would not be doing any flying. She will probably say no to Login.gov as well.

I'm no longer a Republican and do not believe Trump or Elon, but the way things are heading you need Login.gov just to prove who you are. Without it you will find many doors closing to you very soon. On Facebook there are about 9 Jennifer Aniston person's who share enough info to be verified as her. We know this cannot be true. Our government wants to really verify that we are who we say we are. It only makes good sense. I've tried to steer others in the right direction in the article.

@DenoPenno Wait until she tries to enter a federal building or gets kicked off her social security... or get on a train or get on a greyhound bus... I found out yesterday they are changing the rules for riding those...

@Lizard_of_Ahaz I did reply on this but it somehow went to next post. A case of me hitting the wrong button. LOL

Oh, well. Both of them are the same subject. I hope others see this and give their ideas.
