Printing a physical ID for everyone seems like an outdated solution. I'd sooner support biometric hardware on every connected device.

Ah yes, biometrics, the password that you can't change and you leave behind everywhere you go and on everything you touch.

Cloning a fingerprint is trivial. They're not secure.


Face and iris are additional options. I'd be shocked if there weren't more than those in production at this point.

You know what's really trivial? Buying a fake ID.
