Digital IDs & CBDCs: Consent by Stealth? | Miles Harris x Catherine Edwards | CatherineEdwards.life

They won’t ask you politely. Digital IDs and CBDCs are being framed as “convenience,” but the real risk is consent by stealth, where everyday logins, document scans, and biometrics quietly become your single point of control.
In this episode, I’m joined by economist Miles Harris to break down the rollout mechanics (One Login, public-private partnerships, verified ID checks), how programmable money links to identity, and, most importantly, practical steps to protect your sovereignty while we return to our roots: community, cash, hard assets, and local food.

What you’ll learn
- How Digital ID differs from passports/driver’s licenses (centralised, interoperable databases)
- Why biometric onboarding (document scan + selfie/video) is the critical gateway
- CBDCs 101: from messaging standards (ISO 20022) to programmable money & spending rules
- Real-world cues of soft coercion (“for your safety,” single sign-on, pilot schemes)
- UK context: company directors, NHS/app integration, and timing signals
- Practical moves: maintain paper alternatives, use cash, diversify with hard assets, strengthen local/community supply (food, water, skills)
