Universal Virtual ID

In my first post in this blog, the day before yesterday, I talked in a very high level about what I called "UVID", which is short for Universal Virtual ID. Tonight, I would like to elaborate a little bit on this issue.

After a quarter of a century of the Internet, and billions of websites, forums, email addresses and that virtual social and economic activities, and even with the official arrival of the Web 2.0 era, the Cyber Space is flooded with old, static, outdated and boring websites and email addresses that are long forgotten by their users, leaving their sweet memories, angry emails and travel snapshots, floating behind them in infinite limbo.

But those user are also leaving behind valuable personal data, including their full names, birth dates, home & work addresses, names of their relatives and friends - in their contacts - and may be even their confidential information, including their national ID numbers, bank account numbers and passwords hidden somewhere in their emails.

These vital data can seriously be considered time bombs waiting to blast off one day.

With the abnormal advancement in the Artificial Intelligence and the complexity of search engines and the algorithms behind them, - in my belief - it's not going to be long before we discover suspicious parties involved in digging old forgotten data in those old abandoned websites and email addresses. It is just like gangs of burglars scanning old abandoned buildings for a lost wallet or buried bank statement that can supply them with data they can use to conduct some illegal financial transaction or forging a certain person's signature for any purpose.

Be cause of this risk, I would like to propose a universal code for any person using the Internet. This code - the UVID - shall give any user secured & insured access to his/her personal data, bank accounts, credit cards, shopping sites, in addition to the ability to join any website without giving any of your personal data except your UVID and email address.

Your email address(es) can also created, accessed and deleted using your UVID and a certain password that is automatically changing by the minute.   

Think of it as an IBAN for every Internet user. This way, the user's data are protected, online fraud is diminished - as everyone accessing the Internet should be recognized by the system - and the best of all, when you have too many memberships in tons of websites, you can identify them all by checking a statement of activity and current websites connected to your UVID, then you can cancel what you don't need any more and maintain the rest.

For me personally, I believe this is a more efficient to keep my life organized online instead of memorizing loads of usernames, passwords, email addresses ...etc.

Don't you think so?
