Karoli Hindriks: Why the passport needs an upgrade | TED

- čas přidán 19. 01. 2022
- It's time to give paper passports a digital upgrade, says entrepreneur Karoli Hindriks. Looking to Estonia's technology-driven government for inspiration, she envisions a world where immigration is no longer hindered by bureaucracy and needless repetition. Travel with her to a future beyond borders where universal digital passports replace paper ones -- and where outdated systems stop wasting our time and money.

More control
Not a single second of this talk mentioned privacy, and that's a nightmare.
We can't have people who do not value privacy enough, anywhere near a team building digital identity system.
Not that I don't look potentially look at this from a very similar position to what yours might be but she did mention the person would own their own data
@@mmdrodrigues I see what you're saying but I'm not sure how effective companies are with protecting people's private information. So many times that big tech company and the US government been hacked and have millions of people's personal information stolen.
@@mmdrodrigues
Hmm she did say that, but I'm thinking "own your data" here actually refers to having the ability to easily track and share information about yourself without needing to apply/request for it (for example, medical records or police records)
I don't think it refers to being able to keep the data away from prying eyes.
Especially since their company (Jobbatical) is a cloud service that helps apply and track immigration applications.
She's talking mostly about the visa system and not so much the issuance of passports. They are two very different things. Visas are issued by the country that one is either visiting or immigrating to, while passports are solely the responsibility of the country of which somebody is a citizen. Also, if we were to implement a global digital immigration system, who is responsible for storing and securing that data? There are also major privacy issues that go along with a loss of sovereignty. In most countries passports the issuance of passports has absolutely nothing to do with the socio-economic background or the education status of the applicant. Again, comparing apples to oranges.
Very true, but once they get the digital system going, it's just a slippery slope from there to social credit system and slavery.
Yes, you are right. You are explaining the NOW, not the FUTURE.
I'm sure she's aware of the differenceand given that she alluded to working with the German government possibly very knowledgeable on the subject. However when fitting your topic into 10 mins and trying to engage an audience it can be useful to put things more simply. Amazing how many men comment on Ted talks given by women with some straw man argument.
@@rhythmictiger That's a big problem all-around, being cut short.
In 2019 Australia experienced devastating bushfires. One town on the east coast was stranded on the beach and in the ocean as the fires burned homes. When the fire had gone they came out to find the power was out and mobile signal lost. Those who had cash could buy what they needed but those who had adapted to use only the modern tap and go, payWave and eftpos systems were stranded with their homes and possessions burnt and no way to buy anything, even a loaf of bread. This event highlighted a need for caution towards replacing things with technology rather than improving it with the addition of it.
I keep extra cash in small bills in our fireproof safe for emergencies. For us, it's likely to be power outages due to hurricanes / tropical storms.
Any mention of privacy or who holds & has access to all our digital data? Nope no mention at all.
One thing at a time mate,
We definitely need to do it!
Thank you 👍👍
Coming to you from the promoters of the vision: "You will own nothing".
I bet you feel so sad and depressed anyway, no matter how many commodities you possess that you brainwashed yourself to need.
@@antoniousai1989 I bet you feel very smug preaching ascetism to others posting from some tropical beach or dubai.
Yep
That's risky because it makes it easier for tyrannical governments to have easy access to mass surveillance technology. But they get that technology and most of them already have it and can also likely manipulate the data.
And most tyrannical government remain in Washington DC
Exactly. It's sad to see how many people believe the solution to every problem is giving the government more power. It's like history doesn't exist.
Oml your nothing important lol. Not everyone is out to get you.
@@Dez083 Obvious troll 0/10
@@Miranox2 yes obviously lol,
The passport and residence permits! Every time handling over same documents!!
Walking all over the planet to gather everything..and whenever the employees feel like they say come back tomorrow “! Seriously ? You will pay my hotel? ?
Waiting forever in the help line which is rarely helpful!
Last year it was a photocopy, today it has to be sealed/stamped signed by notary! Everything?! It’s becoming a huge business or what!? You want blood also?
Photocopy of everything ( health insurance) really? Copy of the 100 pages??
2 years struggle in madrid fighting for my Passport paying 50€ Uber every trip..eventually I payed way more for the trips than the actual passport
Etc etc etc etc the actual net that entangles it becomes bigger every time
I totally agree we need a simpler way!!!
I agree and sign the petition 📝📚
Great talk. Brilliantly delivered.

Brilliant idea!

Interesting discussion, but no mention of this "digital" privacy.
In USSR socks weren't luxury but now good socks are luxury.
No
For normal citizen of a respective country an easy access from abroad is of no use. I won't personally hire someone from India or China to work for me. Such policies serve only big companies that are man-hungry so it's their responsability to negociate with gov the conditions of relocation. All this woman says does not mention the idea is not to have borders at all so to deprive the countries the possibility to control access until it will be to late and immigrants will be allready there.
Also agreggation of all info about a person in one place and making this info accessible to almost everyone is perhaps OK in small and sleepy Estonia no one cares about but can be much bigger problem in countries where there is far fewer objections to control people lives closely in every aspect. I'm not against digitalization of documents and their machine-processing but gathering and keeping of all data in one place makes me worry.
Who owns this digital personal information and who controls it? What corporation.
Interesting prospective ❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸 Stat Active Stay Healthy
Really a shame TED blocked the comments from Hongqiao Lius TED Talk. Shame on you TED.
India China and Philippine OMG 😱
Amen sista! Yes please, I've been wanting this for sooooo long, especially because I own two East-European passports XD
Magnificent talk
This talk felt like an advertisement for an immigration agency.
This is ridiculous. No sane person would agree to that.
What will happen if a surge of radiation from the sun, destroys the satellites and interrupts the electric grid on earth?
Then we will have far bigger problems to worry about.
@@user-1281 The point is: even something useful (sunlight - the source of energy for plants which trickles down to us directly) is harmful in great quantities.
I agree - even if borderless world is what would benefit us all, our human nature is not ready for it (heck we're not even ready for simple ideas like welfare) I live in London and look how many people voted for Brexit - just to keep out foreigners - let alone from a continent right next to us.
Human nature is very something to overcome. Sadly, our technological advances leapfrog our mentalities'.
WHEN it happens we will rage and burn
I wholheartldy agree with her! freedom of movement is what humanity had before all this modernization.
There are many ways to prevent unauthorized access to information using blockchain, biometrics and/or encryption or many other technologies.
Your lQ must be a single digit
Nope. We won't allow that.
Just awesome … really need of the hour
German Ausländer office is pathetic... I am still struggling with tons of redtapizum and inefficiencies
Now is the right moment for freedom of movement.
This was def an ad. WEF we know what you are trying to do and we dont want it.
This pink suit and this happy attitude is not really convincing.
Yeah it’s like I’m watching an intro of a B-movie.
2:22 I'm pretty sure you can't make the whole world richer? Isn't that how economics works? That if everyone's currency count is doubled, the purchasing power of each currency unit halves?
It's more like we would save a lot of money that was wasted on paperwork or those 88 days she talked about at the end.
General feeling in the comments:
1. People don’t trust governments
2. People didn’t have to apply for a lot of visas to travel
3. A whole lot of western centric views (just like she said about passport if you are not a mixologist that cannot understand things when the speaker wears pink)
Centralized Government problems require Centralized Government solutions :P
Borders represent where bad ideas end and good ideas start
Elaborate, please?
Digital identity and security. What a lie . Who send this con to deceive us .

Hello precious friend that's reading this, we may not know each other but I wish you all the best in life! You are so loved very much by many. ✨

Thanks amen
no thanks!
If only we could see the dislike / like ratio
1K likes 205 dislikes. But people don't press dislike as much now after they removed the official count
When or where is an intention created…
From what place..? and does it lead to a truth within.?
The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot. Take charge o your life.👌
We out here
I definitely see where she's getting at, we definitely need to modernize MANY things in this world. The amount of time and money being wasted is actually astounding. Unfortunately people rather continue to use broken systems rather than taking the effort to implement changes that will ultimately make things a LOT better
@@jessi4889 *Unfortunately governments would rather continue to use inefficent systems, instead of risking their political capital in something that doesn't further their political careers ;)
@@MajkaSrajka that too lmao 😂🙏🏼
😘 Good amazing
It sounds like she is selling a product. Some kind of digital visa company?
Hi
Totalitarianism is bad ok.
She's the CEO of Jobbatical - which sounds like a platform for companies to find people looking for a job.
So a company that would prefer if people could be moved around the globe more easily, specifically for tech and media companies.
In short:
- "It helps poor people" is a pretty hollow point and likely not what she's after.
- She has a direct incentive to push for this.
- Wearing pink and picking the worst examples, followed up by "stories like this are not the exception" (5:00) is a pretty big red flag ...
- Adressing security concerns with a "it is done safely" (with magic and glitter we'll surely make it work, I guess ...)
- Not mentioning issues with autocratic countries at all (do they get a separate treatment or will it just always be a one way trip? Will they be able to bastardize this new global system for citizen surveillance? Will data be available to every country?)
Very good points. Passport is not only info about You but it is also record of Your travel activities. And some countires won't allow You to enter if You previously have been in a countries considered as let's say terrorism harbours.

to preserve the sovereignty of countries, this is a stupid question, or at the very least disingenuous.
Unfortunately free movement isn't good. I only support the idea that people who have proper documents, clear criminal record, only want to work & willing to respect an other country rules + religion are allowed to move freely. And of course time to time to report about how they are doing.
But on the other hand if you let everybody to move freely no matter what, you will end up having criminals, benefit seekers, people who don't want to work just want the lifestyle/ better healthcare, won't respect your culture & religion.
Australia is full. No more space here.
@@InMaTeofDeath kangaroo’s are lucky and who wants to live under the rule of the State run communist party. Rent here is %60 percent of your wage’s. Soon we will have to sleep in a camper van, due to unaffordable living costs.
Well actually Australia is far from full with plenty of space. In fact, Australia government just announced waiver of visa fees for people to enter Australia… just not permanently. Australia and many countries worldwide have very unwelcoming policies towards immigrants. However they are happy to accept foreign students, short-term workers, tourists etc. Isn’t that so?
That could never happen in my backyard
The soft sweet accent of a demon possessed minion...u can keep that..... we will fight
Possessed minion 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that fact that nobody has demonstrated the existence of a demon....oh wait ...your name full armor of God. Yep now i know why lol saids it all
@@Dez083 ive been looking for an someone Like u to debate me on fb live about is there a GOD... So im not going to debate on here but if u would like to defend your position on fb live i know it would be an amazing tool to bring...evn ppl like u to the knowledge, not belief, that there is a GOD...i promise to be respectful, although im not going to try to hold u to a moral standard of decency. Plz comment back and lmk if you would be interested
@@fullarmorofgod8270 now you have me excited for the last 6 years nobody has been able to show any proof whatever for a God. Just fallacious reasoning and anadotical evidence at best. But to be honest most who i have debated didnt even know about what their bible said, which is abit embarrassinglol. My position is there could be a God however i have not seen sufficient evidence for God existing. If i do this debate you obviously have EVIDENCE for a God existing??? And if you do my question is why havent you called up on atheist experience or talk heathen to present your CLEAR CUT CASE?
I wish we didn't have borders in the first place and nobody locked anybody in or out. How much of how many resources would that save?
We need borders otherwise poor and useless people would flood rich countries making them the same shitholes the origin countries were.
I wonder how many dislikes this video has...

Yeah, let's go for it, but not without a world government in place beforehand.
There won be a TED talk about that one, for now.
There should be ZERO governments
You lost me at "World Economic Forum"...
How Amazing I got my new passport today and this beautiful lady talk about my country... Aha ha... No worry my country also implemented second home project for foreigners come here and buy property get the PR 😄
I am wrong for this planet. No amount of paperwork is apt to change this.
Am I romanticizing Ted or was it not dogshit at one point?

The Squares
The Squares lived happily,
in their square houses,
in their square yards,
in their square town.
One day, a family of Circles
moved in from the west.
"Get out of here, roundies!" shouted one of the Squares.
"Why?" asked one of the Circles.
"Because this is a metaphor for Chauvinism!"

A pink Passport
True. There not much reason gor pasports anymore because No person is illegal
What on earth are you talking about
The person isn't the illegal party, their actions potentially are. Hence we have doors, passports, borders to keep us private and safe.
except illegal aliens 👽
Blockchain cryptography seems like it would be useful for such a dream.
can we stop suggesting high energy consuming solutions, already?
@@aleka.. I am guessing it would use less calories / BTUs than mountains of paper. No?
Seems like you don't really know how a blockchain works.

I don’t have a passport and never will. Don’t recognise the right of another entity to infringe on my right to travel
Amazing! I live in one of the smallest countries in the world so I love my passport as it allows me to travel to many parts of the world. I love traveling but I wonder how you exercise your right to travel?
There are easier ways to say you're too poor to travel.
Jokes apart, I get your point, but I'd not sacrifice the opportunity to see new places and meet new people for that.
Immigration is great and in many cases needed. The problem is opening to all with little thought going into it. So everyone who can afford the trip is all of a sudden an American citizen? What is that going to do to the welfare programs? Who is going to pay the cost? What happens when no one lives in Chad anymore?
It all seems a little too much government overreach and big brother to me. Every system is hackable with enough resources and effort.
Wait.. I don't understand the data provided. 2% of GDP of the world is 1.7 trillion will solve world hunger, so 30 billion. She then goes on to say we could solve world hunger not once but 56 times every year?? Isn't it solved once it's solved? I look at all the charities in the food for the hungry market. World Vision, IDEO, American Red Cross, and the like how much hunger have they solved over the decades in business? Billions of dollars go to these... Why haven't we seen meaningful progress?
