Rejected on
Protect Privacy, Freedom, and Human Dignity
We believe:
* Every person has the right to privacy and bodily autonomy.
* Access to banking, healthcare, travel, employment, and public life should never depend solely on digital identity verification.
* Citizens must retain the option to use physical documents and offline alternatives.
* Personal data should not be concentrated into centralised systems vulnerable to misuse, hacking, profiling, or mission creep.
