digital IDs are still hackable, even if you have total control over your own, it's still hackable and it gets tracked everywhere you have to show it.
Everything is hackable, even the current form of id we have which is SSN. Decentralized digital ID is orders of magnitude harder to hack, and has even less government control over the ID process. The expectation value to crack modern encryption is measured on eons even if you're using all the power in the sun and physically perfect efficiency in energy to computation conversion
and digital ID won't make it any better
