Sooner or later, all states will adopt a digital ID, which means even tighter control over everyone. We’re already being watched — no point denying it — from phones spying on conversations, to what we buy, to where we go with Maps. In my opinion, if governments tighten their grip too much, it will spark a revival of the cypherpunk movement and people’s desire for freedom, and it will also lead to Bitcoin being used as a tool of liberty, while exposing CBDCs for the garbage they really are.
