Those who support the implementation of a QR code always make me laugh, because you guys just can't think into the future and even imagine what kind of world that would necessarily lead to.
Do yu guys even understand the ramifications of a digital identification system? and the infinite amount of personal data that can be added into it? And with such unlimited, easy access to your personal data by a third-party, the infinite amount of restrictions, and especially restrictions of movement, a government could impose on its citizens?
What if one day, you wake up and realize that your digital "vaccine pass" that you've been using for years to access restaurants and such, has now been extended to include your traffic ticket fines? Your credit card debts? Your tax records?
So now all of a sudden, after your 5th dose taken (because you thought getting that jab every 6 months would give you "freedom"), you STILL can't get into restaurants or travel because :
1) you owe money to the bank with that credit card you never paid off in full
2) or you haven't paid your traffic tickets
3) or your bank records show that you've been buying too much meat at your favorite butcher's shop ("meat is bad for the planet" and your high meat consumption obviously worsens global warming).
And for any of these reasons, your Digital ID (formally your "vaccine passport" but now with a more general term, as it really includes all your personal identification data) has been DEACTIVATED, and won't be reactivated until you pay your fines/debts in full and improve your eating behavior.
How's that for a QR code? Still like that idea?
Hahaha. I wish as naive as some of these posters advocating for a digital vaccine pass, obviously they don't know what they are wishing for.
