Digital Identity
In the World Economic Forum’s talk, one phrase enlightens my understanding of “digital identity”. The speaker says that women have more barriers when it comes to having/own digital identity; further to this, the quality of digital identity also matters. which means that this identity must allow people to access public services in order to be considered a valuable digital identity. Hence, the value behind digital identity might be equity, access to public resources, and global opportunities (World Economic Forum, 2019).
How do personal versus professional approaches to digital identity affect social media use?
Personal approaches to digital identity might be simple things such as open a bank account, but professional approaches to digital identity empower individuals when one uses it (World Economic Forum, 2019).
How do digital identities converge in networked publics – what are the impacts and/or benefits?
Digital identities converge in networked publics in a way that allows individuals to control their data and protect their privacy (World Economic Forum, 2019).
