The internet was built as a means for human beings to share information with each other. The information that tells our stories, educates us, brings value to our lives.
Far from being free or safe, the internet has become a place where identity fraud and surveillance go unchecked and unchallenged. This hurts everyone.
Right now, every online service uses some form of knowledge-based authentication (passwords & personal information) to prove identity. This causes numerous problems:
Digital exploitation is now the world's 3rd largest economy at $5 Trillion in 2022.
With just over 5 billion internet users, this puts the annual cost of identity fraud at $1,000 per person.
No wonder everything is so much more expensive!
If you're an average internet user, your personal data is being held by 350 companies.
That's 350 copies of you... Out of your control.
For the top 5% of people that number swells to an average of 2,834!
The vast majority of data breaches — 85% — are the direct result of compromised passwords.
Personal Identity Information is the primary target of most data breaches — Your identity is not safe.
Companies make unrestricted access to your personal data part of their terms of service. The information they collect about you — often without your consent — is stored across countless databases with minimal protections against hackers and identity thieves.
Breaches have become so normal, most go completely unreported.
The technology to solve these problems is available, but the companies that could help us are too busy exploiting our data to implement any "solution" that they cannot control and monetize for themselves.
