The real problem is not passwords so much as trusted sources. Governments should have an email account that citizens have a right to and will not go away and have local offices to verify access issues.
I don't want my government hosting my email.
The last time they had to do anything important they stoled all the sensitive data in plain text in an Excel spreadsheet and then the spreadsheet got corrupted so they lost everything. Of course they didn't have backups.
But at least since it was stolen, the backup was hosted for free on the hacker forums /s
well they deliver your mail. I am envisioning the same protections but also you don't have to use it in general. but it would be how the government would send things to you. Also I have had corps almost constantly have a breach of my information but not once yet from the feds or my state.
No. Wtf no.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_equivalence
based on?
You'll need to read the article I don't feel like breaking it down for you.
Im familiar with the concept and disagree. Just giving you a chance to back it up. You see anything can be called a false equivalency and each specific equivalency would have specifics on why.
Buddy. If you're not able to tie in the conversation to the concept I can't help. I recommended pasting the concept into an LLM to explain it to you.
Or if you're looking to argue with a stranger on the internet... I can't help you there either.
I don't need it as its not a false equivalency.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ okay chief
I bet the gov would love to host your email and have access to all the same info Google does...
Better have your info shared with one government, rather than have it shared with every government
Allow me to introduce you to international intelligence-sharing alliances.

Whatever you're smoking, do less of that
