  1. @elsua54 On identity and #passport:

    Sure, it might work for you
    (you prob had a good start in life right?).

    Iincreasingly the demand is to use paperwork, ID, SIM card (say mid-level) to buy. #Passports sometimes to verify yourself.

    Even without some, the other people are using those middle-men so you have much less people to work / create with (what Mastodon needs to answer).

    People get "more options" provided by bad people in a bad #circular #economy that's #growing a #negative #alliance.

  2. theguardian.com/politics/2026/. "A #British girl was prevented from returning to her #school in the #UK for 6 weeks after a trip to see her #grandmother in #Italy because of the Home Office’s new rule requiring dual British #nationals to have a British #passport to get back into the #country." Yet more narrow-minded, #racist, #xenophobic #HomeOffice stupidity, for which that #ReformUK entryist into the #LabourParty, Shabana #Mahmood, is PERSONALLY responsible!

  3. Nearly a million #passports just exposed on the public internet—and anyone could access them with a simple URL

    A journalist typing a few letters and numbers into a web browser pulled up the #passport of a young woman from Germany. Then a Spanish man’s passport. Then another man’s driver’s license. All of it sitting on the public internet with no password, no encryption, no access control whatsoever.

  5. In this #HotTake I explore a new #idea of #world #citizenship for everyone.

    No #passport needed, just have one #border - #life itself.

    Have a couple world laws any #region enforces about ones well being, but don't #weaponize things on that level. Leave the rest up to individual #cities to cultivate.

    This is about #respect, #culture #conservation and #human #dignity. Throughout #locations where only common ground makes decisions, rather than #laws or #empires instead.

  7. On Hold

    I am trying to renew my passport before I have to fly to Florida this summer. I’ve been on hold with their help line for 10 minutes. I have a meeting 70 minutes from now. Do you think I will still be on hold when the meeting starts?

    Something tells me I will be. Government efficiency and all that crap, right?

    I was just about to publish this when my call was forwarded to a voicemail and hung up. Oh good. I guess I can start that on-hold clock again.

    Yippee.

  8. 🌍✈️ So you're #stateless and want to travel? 🤔 Here's a #whimsical #guide that may or may not help you navigate the world's #bureaucratic #mazes without a #passport. Just remember, if it all goes south, don’t call Taejun – he’s already busy crafting #disclaimers. 🙅‍♂️📄

  9. #SAVEAct Could Stop Millions of #Women From Voting. Here’s What You Need to
    Know
    Bill would make it harder for women, people of color, young voters, and other marginalized groups to register to #vote. It would have a direct impact on anyone whose #legalname does not match their #birthcertificate or #passport, such as 79% of heterosexual married women.
    Data show that SAVE Act would only #disenfranchise eligible American #voters, and do nothing to prevent illegal voting.
