Britain has scrapped its national digital ID scheme. This is the right decision. A centralised database of every resident's identity is a breach waiting to happen. We argued this in our consultation response to the UK government.

Aztec just got an upgrade! Although the previous version 4 was already at Stage 2 decentralization, it had known vulnerabilities that v5 addresses. It also adds some useful improvements like preconfirmations.

In 1950, Clarence Willcock refused to show his ID card to a London policeman. "I am a Liberal, and I am against this sort of thing." His case helped kill Britain's national ID. 75 years on, Britain just scrapped it again. x.com/AztecLabs_/sta…

The UK's national digital ID is dead 🎉🎺 Good riddance. If you know your history, you'll know Britain has been here before and got it right. A quick thread on what we told the UK government in our May 2026 consultation response, and why history keeps rhyming. 🧵

The answer is to prove the fact without surrendering the data, using zero-knowledge proofs and other privacy-preserving technologies. The technology to do this exists today, built in Britain. Privacy is not an obstacle to digital identity. It is a requirement.

Scrapping the scheme is a promising sign for Britain. But the problem it was meant to solve remains. Right to work checks are still mandatory. Age verification is already law. And every check today means handing your documents to a server that will eventually be breached.

releasing zkpassport.gwei subdomains gated by @ZKPassport. the zkp doesn't reveal anything about you (no name, no nationality, no eyeball). one passport can mint one name only. i will use this as an anti-sybil mechanism for two new apps im building :) gwei.domains

🔴Social media ban is FAILING in Australia According to new research by leading medical journal, The BMJ: 🔹Over 85% of under-16s are still on social media sites despite a ban 🔹66% of children using social media have been exposed to ID checks including intrusive methods like uploading selfies The evidence is on the table - a social media ban will fail to keep children safer online. Instead it would force Orwellian ID gateways to the internet, population-wide surveillance and a chokehold on everyone’s internet access. Read⤵️ news.sky.com/story/worrying…

The UK's current poll / pettion system is laughable. You must enter your name, email, postcode and who knows what else is tracked. Polling infrastructure should not collect data about voters, it must stay private. Polls should be verifiable and include a check that each vote is actually from a UK person. ZkPassport Polls is an experiment to tackle direct democracy and its not just for the UK. Try out the social media poll below or create your own.

Should the UK ban social media for under-16s? Vote below if you're a UK national. Every vote is provably from a real, unique UK national. No bots, no duplicates, nothing you can game. Have your say: polls.zkpassport.id/poll?id=441085…
