Digital identity programs are transforming how citizens prove who they are both online and in person. In a recent commentary in The Times, Tony Blair emphasized that embracing technology—including digital identity and face recognition—provides governments with the tools to modernize public services while countering populism and enhancing crime prevention. Governments in the United States, United Kingdom, and across Europe are now rolling out centralized digital identity cards and systems that leverage advanced verification technologies. These systems aim to enhance security, prevent fraud, and streamline access to services while empowering citizens with robust, government-issued credentials.

In a recent open letter, Rep. Rashida Tlaib raised important concerns about the use of facial recognition technology in everyday environments. Tlaib highlighted that if these systems aren’t carefully designed, they can exhibit significant racial bias—misidentifying individuals of color at a much higher rate than white individuals. In her letter, she stressed the need for caution and thorough review, pointing out that studies have shown these systems may not work equally well across all communities. Her message isn’t an attack on any particular retailer; rather, it’s a call for everyone involved—from developers to companies deploying the technology—to ensure that fairness and accuracy are built into these systems from the ground up.
