Things that future humans will look back on and laugh at us about

Social Security cards
Everybody has this secret number that they have to keep secret on this piece of paper that they can't laminate or show to anybody
If you get somebody's number you can steal their identity lol
hahahaha social security cards are so dumb
can't wait until we have a safer, digital equivalent (though it will probs be your google account  )

Just remember all you are is a number to the government

and I wouldn't think a digital equivalent would be really any different or safer than what we have now. And if it would be used for the same things then I'm sure we would run into the same troubles.

[Daddy]

A digital equivalent could implement non-repudiation thus severely reducing / realistically eliminating identity theft while also removing the likelihood of fraud because it's much harder to fill out a credit card application with a key and have it validated and to just grab a nine digit number.

i.e. 
1.) Provide public key to bank for a loan.
2.) Application is encrypted with this key, along with a session key.
3.) User decrypts with their personal private key
4.) Completes action and encrypts with the session key.
5.) Submits Application
6.) Bank decrypts based on the key they sent.


yay

but yeah the embedded tags thing was more of a joke.  But if someone lost their key oh god.
