A Step Closer To Digital IDs – Online ID Document Checks To Expand in UK; plus facial recognition surveillance on the rise

Is the UK taking a sideways step or a step closer to digital ID by allowing more checks to be done with uploaded identity documents? Changes to the Identity Trust Framework promise private-sector provision for faster, more secure checks of people’s right to rent, work and apply for background checks. Among ID document and selfie biometric authentication providers, the UK’s Yoti is working to bring digital ID to Open Banking, Blinking has its sights set on European expansion, and iDenfy has added a new capability.

UK to launch certification for private-sector identity checking technology

Employers and landlords in the UK will be able to use certified private-sector identity document verification technology (IDVT) to check the credentials of potential renters and workers to determine their rights, according to a policy paper from the Home Office, Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport and the background checking department, Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS).

Another tech-related event:

London is buying heaps of facial recognition technology.

September 2021 - The UK’s biggest police force is set to significantly expand its facial recognition capabilities before the end of this year. New technology will enable London’s Metropolitan Police to process historic images from CCTV feeds, social media and other sources in a bid to track down suspects. But critics warn the technology has “eye-watering possibilities for abuse” and may entrench discriminatory policing.

In a little-publicised decision made at the end of August, the Mayor of London’s office approved a proposal allowing the Met to boost its surveillance technology. The proposal says that in the coming months the Met will start using Retrospective Facial Recognition (RFR), as part of a £3 million, four-year deal with Japanese tech firm NEC Corporation.

Goodbye Privacy: Supermarkets Secretly Implementing Digital ID Software that Stores Your Biometrics

Major Supermarket chains, including Sainsbury's, Tesco, Morrisons and even the Co-op are installing systems that capture and store your biometric data, including facial scans and gate analysis. The systems are being trialled in a number of stores across the country with most shoppers unaware they are being targeted.

The trials were organized at various points during 2022 in a number of cities in England. More.

We need a new approach to digital identity”, so say the authors of an “Agenda Article” for the World Economic Forum, published on the 28th of September.

Digital ID has been in the news a lot lately, obscured for the past week in the mist of the Israel-Hamas situation.

Last month the United Nation Developments Programme published its legal guidelines for digital IDs as well as “mobilizing” global leadership with a $400mn fund to “empower” digital identity programmes in over 100 countries.

Various nations are already making steps in that direction. Multiple US states are either already issuing digital IDs or planning to in the near future, as are Kenya, Somalia, Bhutan and Singapore. Austria’s system is going online in December.

Just last week, Forbes Australia published it’s guide to what “Australians need to know” about digital IDs, and 9News reported that they could be in place as soon as next year.

Just two days ago, the Journal of Australian Law Society predicted the same thing.

Meanwhile, also in Australia, the world’s 21st largest bank is changing its terms and conditions to allow it to “de-bank” customers.

The National Australian Bank’s “revised” terms and conditions go into force on November 1st and include, in clause 11: “NAB may close your account at any time at its discretion”.

The reasons NAB would consider enforcing clause 11 make for interesting reading [emphasis added]:

NAB can take a range of things into account when exercising its rights and discretions. These can include:
[…]
(e) NAB’s public statements, including those relating to protecting vulnerable persons, the environment or sustainability;
(f) community expectations and any impact on NAB’s reputation;

So – as of November 1st – NAB reserves the right to de-bank you if you get cancelled, or say something they don’t approve of about climate change or “vulnerable people”.

In the UK, just two days ago, it was reported the government is planning to upload every passport photo in their records to a facial recognition database. Big Brother Watch reports:

Digital Identity Bill - The Data (Use and Access) Bill must be stopped

The Data (Use and Access) Bill must be stopped. This is not a new piece of legislation—it’s a rebranded version of the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill, which the Conservative government failed to push through before the general election. Now, Labour are trying again. This bill paves the way for an all-encompassing digital identity system. Despite assurances that digital IDs will be voluntary. The reality is that once these systems are embedded into everyday life, for banking, government services or even supermarket age verification—opting out becomes impossible. The infrastructure for control is being built, and history shows that when governments and corporations gain more access to personal data, they do not give it back. In March 2023, we reported that digital ID's were being implemented under the Digital Information (No. 2) Bill. Now, it is back under a new name, with even broader implications. This bill is not about convenience, it’s about control. But laws like this only succeed when people stay silent. Public pressure can stop this, just as it has stopped other draconian measures in the past. If you care about privacy, personal freedom and the right to live without constant monitoring, now is the time to act. - UK Column.

The Countries that WILL ACCEPT the MARK OF THE BEAST

Imagine waking up in a world where buying food, paying bills, or even unlocking your door depends on a single digital ID linked to a global surveillance system. Sounds like science fiction? It’s not. This system is already being built — and surprisingly, many people are embracing it willingly. What was once described in the Book of Revelation as the “Mark of the Beast” may now be emerging, not as a tattoo or mystical seal, but through something far more subtle — modern, convenient, and even attractive. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), biometric systems, facial recognition, social credit scores — they’re not just tech trends. They’re pieces of a global puzzle forming right before our eyes. But which countries would accept such a system? And why are some of the least expected already ahead of the curve? To understand this, we need to look beyond announcements. The Mark won’t arrive with a label. No one will knock on your door saying, “Welcome to the Beast System.” It will come as an upgrade — with promises of security, efficiency, and ease. The trap isn’t set with chains… but with cashback, convenience, and app notifications. There are three major signs that indicate whether a nation is likely to embrace this system — even without realizing it. First: centralized government control. Countries where the government already holds significant power over everyday life tend to implement drastic shifts with minimal public resistance. Second: blind trust in institutions. In societies where people believe everything the State, the experts, or the “science” says, personal freedom is often sacrificed for the illusion of safety. Third: high digital dependence. Where everything is already digital, mandatory becomes the next logical step. Let’s look at countries leading this shift: China is the global control lab. With social credit scores, AI surveillance, and digital currency all under state control, the system already exists — it's just waiting for a global trigger. Singapore is a model of order and obedience, where digital ID is required for nearly all services. Sweden has gone even further — citizens voluntarily implant chips under their skin to access transport, payments, and buildings. The UAE boasts smart cities with total integration of facial recognition and data tracking. Australia, during the pandemic, revealed how fast a population can accept strict digital monitoring — what was once “emergency” could easily become permanent. Now here’s the twist: it’s not just authoritarian states leading the charge. Democracies are joining in — quietly. The United States, long seen as the bastion of freedom, has cities already using surveillance tech, data tracking, and drone monitoring. While rural areas still resist, Big Tech has created a parallel system of control, making freedom feel like a choice — when it might not be anymore. Brazil is torn. A deeply religious population, skeptical of state power… yet also tired of bureaucracy. Systems like Pix and gov.br offer convenience — but at what cost? Canada recently froze bank accounts of peaceful protesters — legally. The infrastructure is ready. It only needs a reason. Western Europe pushes forward under the global digital agenda, while Poland and Hungary stand as exceptions, promoting sovereignty, tradition, and faith — but how long can they resist in a connected world? And then comes the most uncomfortable truth: the real danger isn’t control imposed by force — it’s control accepted with applause. In many “free” countries, people are choosing this system. Not out of fear, but because it looks like progress. As the Bible says in Revelation 3:16–17, “...no one could buy or sell unless they had the mark…” That verse may no longer feel symbolic when compared to today’s reality. Soon, access to life itself — banking, healthcare, transportation — could depend on being “compliant.” And non-compliance might mean social exile. The decision to accept the Mark won’t just be political or religious. It will be personal. A choice between comfort and conscience. Security and freedom. A system that offers everything — in exchange for your soul. And the most dangerous strategy of all? To make sure people never even realize they’re choosing. So now, knowing all this, ask yourself: Will your country resist this system… or welcome it as just another software update? - Video transcription.
