Episode Synopsis

Send us a textOn this week of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth, Ralph O’Brien of Reinbo Consulting, talk about the UK's plans to introduce a mandatory digital identity card. This is not the first time a proposal for mandatory ID has come up in the UK, and Ralph has thoughts about it. Paul on the other hand is a little surprised about the uproar, since mandatory ID has been introduced in the Netherlands many moons ago.UK Government press release"‘A hacker’s dream’: Britons on Keir Starmer’s plan for digital ID cards" - The Guardian - 27 September 2025  If you have comments or questions, find us on LinkedIn and Instagram @seriousprivacy, and on BlueSky under @seriousprivacy.eu, @europaulb.seriousprivacy.eu, @heartofprivacy.bsky.app and @igrobrien.seriousprivacy.eu, and email [email protected].
