.This is what I wrote into the federal register. Please do not allow KYC for the entire internet. This is in fact a miserable failure of an idea. You want to hand our data to AI companies, huh? I do not want to have anything to do with that, or you, if you don't come up with better data privacy regulations. Under the fourth amendment, this would be an unconstitutional general warrant. I thought we did away with those long ago. It does not describe the particular things to be seized. KYC is a ridiculous idea in the first place. It is not designed for the entire internet infrastructure. All the department is doing, is enabling more mass surveillance. By trying to shoehorn KYC into the internet infrastructure, you will make the internet less convenient to use for blind people like me. I rely on it in my every day life. If you decide to make the worst mistake ever, I will have to stop using the internet in favor of my privacy.
