Also: the appropriate reaction is NEVER to be like “oh my god it’s so over, just use your government mandated ID for everything now”. Privacy is not dead, and not everyone is a state-level attacker.

The question is: do you want your face to be out there? Do you want to be recognized in the street? Do you want the schizo that has too much time on his hand know your address? He might have a sawed-off shotgun and be living down the street, and the thing he’s incredibly mad about might not even be real, but he might knock at your door and shoot everything that moves anyway. So maybe don’t broadcast your government ID, or your location, or where you live exactly, if you can avoid it.
