- This video dives into the topic of online identity and explains an identity system which puts the user in control without relying on a proprietary framework.
Full script here: / an-introduction-to-sel...
We use the terminology of SSI, as the concept of individuals or organizations having sole ownership of their digital and analogue identities, and control over how their personal data is shared and used. The user is central to the administration of one’s own identity. This adds a layer of security and flexibility allowing the identity holder to only reveal the necessary data for any given transaction or interaction. It gives individuals or organizations agency to control their identity information and therefore acknowledges that identity is about much more than logging in.

Great job!
Thank you for the video.
4 Layers of SSI 🙌🏽
One of the keys that prevents companies from requiring certain details about us as a condition of transacting with them is the difficulty involved in gathering and organizing such data. e.g., medical records. WE LIKE THAT. We don't want that info organized and stored centrally even if we have "control" over it because that would just empower companies and governments to ask us to "voluntarily" provide the information or be denied the good or service we seek.
I'm just getting into researching about SSI, and it seems great! Are you saying that a consideration to have is a corporation or government withholding their services because you're refusing to provide all the details regarding your identity? Or rather, that since the individual is the central holder of ALL their identity, it could be used against them. It sounds like a valid concern that a company may say 'No thanks, we're not going to service you until your provide ALL or more than what you may feel comfortable offering.' It sounds coercive, but is that the point your trying to make? Like I said, I'm just now learning about SSI, and I'm trying to understand what negatives there could be from employing it.
@@Ryzeke Many of us consider this to be feeding into a much broader policy program of censorship and control. In a world where the leaders are trusted by the people, SSI would probably be a great thing. We live in a different world, one in which our leaders are (or are at least perceived to be) owned by malevolent oligarchic interests.
The difficulty you talk about gathering and organizing such data, e.g. medical records, can have seriously bad consequences. It is common in healthcare for a patient to be incorrectly diagnosed or treated due to lack of access to the patient history.
I don't think we should be protected by the defects and inefficiencies of the systems in place. Someone committed to turn them around will always have the upper hand on you. I think efficient and transparent systems should prevail and their good usage should be enforced by active citizenship, free press and education.
IMO, that pattern of thinking is like saying NO to technological progress because it is harder to hack a damn slow computer....
SSI/VCs/wallets = form filler on steroids. Given the choice, what business wouldn't want to collect and use verified personal information?
@@f.carter6091 Perhaps small to medium sized business that see such moves as advantaging global publicly traded companies at the expense of their businesses and at the expense of the privacy and freedom of their customer base.
How do you deal with the oracle problem? External data in Blockchain ledgers don’t have to be correct only because they are on the blockchain
10 principles of SSI
Why are you rejecting calls from Russia ?!
slava rodu. don't trust the west. they plan to control the world and this digital ID will be a large part of that plan.
Identity is a lot more than just login in..
Hi I am a cryptographer-researcher. I would like to discuss about some ideas. First, what if the policy of confirmation is private, meaning that, you don't know what is the conditions that your identity should satisfy? Do you know some application for that? Second Question: what if the condition is complicated and involved with many attributes. This means the user have to generate a large proof.
Hey ! your questions seem valid, am a startup founder of a blockchain app, so it would be better if we can communicate and discuss about this in personal ?
Let me know where do you wanna contact.
You don't spend enough time fleshing out the the problems that you're saying SSI is meant to solve. Consequently, those problems do not seem very problematic. As a result, viewers may wonder whether those supposed problems are the real reason for the identity management revolution for which you advocate. If you want to fuck with people's identities, you need to say something much much more compelling (e.g., "our identity system would prevent the Government from tracking you and regulating your transactions", or something like that). Else, one wonders whose team you're on. It is now us or them. Choose a side.
Glad to see you are Wide Awake!
maybe you could shine a fleshing light on the matter

Your response lacks critical thinking. SSI is ownership of your own identity, with bulletproof security and yes, independence from central authorities who misuse and game your data for financial benefit. Not just that, physical ids are inherently flawed, can be faked, and are not cost effective for millions and billions of people. Also, on a global scale, they are tied to the issuing agencies, and in nations with unstable governments and war, when the government falls, you lose your identity. The Syrian refugee problem is a clear indicator of this. Please do your own research, a video shouldn't be the entirety of your knowledge on a subject.
Anything digital is just as likely to be compromised and maybe even more likely. Going digital is the worst thing we've ever done as a society.
Just say, "NO!"
Nope. Let’s Decentralize.
No, please, not hyperledger....
There is NOTHING soverign about becoming a robot for the state to keep enslaved.
Baby girl you just don’t understand this technology. If you are on youtube you already probably going to need this.
@@brok3nsec your talking down to her means your debate skills suck
@@brok3nsec Un-uh, honey child, I think she understands it all too well.
@@stephenroot7439 No you actually don’t. If I have to explain this to you then I’m not the one to teach it.
All that technology and infrastructure to buy a can of beer from a vending machine. What happened to cash?
if we all agree to stop using cards, this Digital Prison will be slowed down.
So a bit like minority report, yeh? All very well until quantum scales out making modern cryptography irrelevant… this is some of the finest consent engineering I’ve seen for some time.. didn’t the public make it abundantly clear that we don’t want this bull? No matter how it’s framed?
