Europe won’t save us.

I agree. But that wasn't what I meant. I meant it in the other direction. That we may slowly get forced into more and more requirements to give a real world identity, to use the internet. Some nations are moving that way. Even if they aren't all the way there yet, they would love to.

Maybe it'll never get that far, I don't know. I agree big tech companies are more powerful now than ever. It's a huge damn problem.
