DIGITAL IDENTITY. HUMAN DIGNITY.
The Humanized Internet is working to use new technologies to defend the rights of vulnerable people, and give every human being worldwide secure, sovereign control over their own digital identity.
The internet brought seismic changes for humanity. It had the power to bring people closer together and protect our rights. However, most experts agree that it didn’t quite work out that way. Large tech companies now give us our services “for free” – but in exchange we ourselves become the product. We surrender our control and privacy. We surrender control over our own identity.
Security
But new technologies like blockchain are giving humanity another chance. Blockchain is a globally distributed database bound with an unbreakable chain of information. Universal and immutable, everyone can access it using their own personal key. It could allow all people to have sovereign control over their digital identity – if it is used in the right way. If it is used in a human way.
Dignity
Over one billion people worldwide have no official identity, making them vulnerable to abuses like incarceration and human trafficking. That includes 230 million children under five, and ten million stateless people. Not only can a secure identity help defend their rights, but it can provide access to essential services like education, health and banking. It can enable them to be sovereign individuals.
The Humanized Internet is building a broad coalition of NGOs, international organizations and other actors to build a global consensus regarding each human being’s sovereign digital rights.
