ONE LOGIN: "Creating a kind of shadow Digital ID" @samikshassotd Public opposition stopped the Government’s proposed national Digital ID scheme. But GOV UK One Login continues to expand across 250+ government functions – including obligations people must fulfil, rather than merely optional “services”. We are calling for an immediate freeze on further expansion, a proper independent review and a legal guarantee that nobody will be forced – or financially pressured – to use it.

Read the beginning of AJP Taylors history of 1914-1945 and weep.

"Papers Please" to get online? @andyburnham didn't even fight a leadership contest, never mind a general election He has NO MANDATE to push a massive intrusion that never featured in Labour's manifesto either Be an action taker + fight this: togetherdeclaration.org/noid… Stand #together, this attack on privacy, anonymity and ultimately speech affects us all #dontidtheinternet

If you’re interested in social media that is harder to censor, take a look at Nostr. Unlike Facebook or X, Nostr is not owned or controlled by one company. You control your identity, and your posts can be shared through many independent servers. If one server blocks you or shuts down, you can simply use another - without losing your identity or followers. It’s a simple idea that could have huge implications for freedom online: nostr.how/en/get-started

Latest budget leak: the taxman will be able to grab cash direct from your bank account. Healey will announce new powers for HMRC to automatically deduct money from current and savings accounts when they fail to engage with the taxman, reports the Times. There will be no need for HMRC to get a court order to begin deducting payments. The Association of Taxation Technicians (ATT) attacked the policy. “We have heard of debts being pursued while claims are still outstanding because of HMRC delays or errors, as well as difficulties contacting HMRC to resolve queries,” said Jon Stride, chair of the ATT’s Technical Steering Group. This is bound to be a really disastrous policy as HMRC often gets its figures wrong and fails to respond to taxpayers who point this out.

Can we go into HMRCs account and take it back when you piss our money up the wall?

The government scrapped its national digital ID scheme following public opposition but the infrastructure continues to expand. GOV.UK One Login now has: - 264 government services already connected - 500 services expected within two years - 23 million+ people already using it The government is also working on ways for different departments to recognise the same individual across their services, rather than requiring people to verify their identity separately. Officials confirmed this is still being developed, alongside the continued expansion of One Login and GOV.UK Wallet. The concerns about security, accountability and what happens when these systems get things wrong haven't gone away. The oral evidence from the 19 October parliamentary hearing is worth reading, particularly questions 12, 42 and 62. Full transcript: committees.parliament.uk/ora… The government's published roadmap sets out further development, including plans to introduce identity verification using banking information: sign-in.service.gov.uk/about… The national digital ID scheme may have been scrapped, but digital ID is very much alive and kicking.

ONE LOGIN: "Tony Blair wants to build upon One Login" - @AndrewOrlowski Govt digital identify system One Login has quietly expanded across 250+ government services - with more planned We say: FREEZE ONE LOGIN - expansion must not continue without proper parliamentary scrutiny and safeguards for privacy and civil liberties Why is a system of this significance being allowed to scale to millions of people without full public debate & scrutiny?
