>national ID is a good thing
Where has my based admin gone? I can already be identified through my National Insurance number. I don't want bad actors pretending we need ID cards to make deporting illegal aliens easier (it won't) or to bar people from using certain services/venues (remember March 2020?).

@thatbrickster@shitposter.world Yes, the notion that everyone carrying an ID on them increases public safety somehow is a myth.

@SuperDicq @thatbrickster I don't think you should have to carry it or that it should be required for most things. I think it should exist for things that need it.

@sun@shitposter.world @thatbrickster@shitposter.world I mean sure that's fair, but this thread was mostly about compulsory ID laws, as in a law that says every individual is required to carry an ID with them at all times.
