+description: During the first half of the 2010's we saw the emergence of personal data, as an asset class, and the dawn of modern identity schemes.
+excerpt: >
+  Your IDENTITY is at the root of your relationship with any service providing company, including the telecom companies. Honestly sir, the proper structure of the global network that emanates out of US agencies, laboratories, universities, offices, homes and increasingly pockets, is one based on universal ownership. Individuals must own the data attributes relating to their identities on the digital network. I am concerned that America has not figured out how to create administrative owners of the identity attributes that are implied by the governing structure of our nation. How can we structure the data processing relationships between producers-service providers-consumers when the structure of citizenship has not even been defined adequately enough to translate appropriately into our digital reality.

 title: Decentralized Identity Foundation - DIF
+excerpt: >
+  A key piece of the decentralized identity equation is how people, organizations, and devices can be identified and located without centralized systems of identifiers (e.g. email addresses). DIF members are actively working on protocols and implementations that enable creation, resolution, and discovery of decentralized identifiers and names across decentralized systems, like blockchains and distributed ledgers.
