On March 26, 2020, the World Economic Forum published specifications and launched a new website for a project it has christened “Known Travel Digital Identity” (KTDI) papersplease.org/wp/2020/03/30/…
KTDI is a “surveillance-by-design” vision for tracking and control of travelers more dystopian than anything we have seen before.
Access to more comprehensive travel history and transaction logs is a longstanding goal of government surveillance and travel-control agencies. hasbrouck.org/blog/archives/…
In a presentation at the Hotel Electronic Distribution Network Association (HEDNA) conference, representatives of Accenture (the prime contractor to the WEF for the KTDI project) and Marriott boasted of how, .. an individual could be picked out of a crowd for “blacklisting”
using automated facial recognition, “without stopping or acknowledging the camera.” So it can be used for surreptitious, non-consnsual mass surveillance.
Partners in the KTDI project include government agencies (DHS, ICAO, INTERPOL, etc.) and the airline and airline IT industries (IATA, Amadeus, etc.). But that’s not all.
Other KTDI project partners include Google (Google acquired a computerized reservation system provider in 2010, but it’s unclear in what capacity Google is participating in the KTDI project), the Marriott and Hilton and Accor hotel chains, and
and the Visa credit-card and payment processing company. #wirecard
