China’s online ID system may not be so bad, says analysis

2024-11-14  Per Henrikson

Despite some shortcomings in the legal proposal, the state-controlled identity authentication platform is unlikely to be turned into a tool for overreach. The Network ID Number and Network ID Certificate are designed to solve some of these problems. Users will be able to voluntarily opt-in and the Public Service Platform will not collect any user information unless users agree. Users will also have the right to deactivate their digital identity, delete their data and cancel their account on the proposed Public Service Platform.
