🧵Open Letter to the Minister of Home Affairs, @Leon_Schreib
Concerns about the proposed Digital ID System
Dear Minister Schreiber,
@LexLibertasOnX is a think tank and advocacy group committed to the promotion of basic freedoms and the principles of constitutionalism. In this sense, our central aim is to promote decentralisation and self-governance for the various peoples of South Africa. We also take a stand against particular policy ideas that we believe to be counterproductive to the promotion of decentralised governance.
One such issue is the proposed digital ID system.
We have recently submitted our concerns about the proposed digital ID system to your office, and we have opened a channel through which members of the public could express their concerns. Within days, thousands of people have added their names to our submission. Support for our opposition to the digital ID system is still coming in. For this reason, we will add this to the submission that we already presented to your office at a later stage.
This strong public reaction reflects deep and widespread concern about the direction your Department is taking. While the proposal is presented as a technical improvement aimed at greater efficiency and fraud reduction, we believe it represents something far more serious.
We do not believe that the public should be asked to simply trust that this infrastructure will be secure and free of abuse. The design of the system itself — particularly the mandatory logging of verifications and the broad discretionary powers granted to the Director-General — makes abuse not only possible, but likely over time.
In this sense, there are several concerns that we wish to bring under your immediate attention. We will do so one by one. Thereafter, we will conclude with a list of questions with regard to which we would appreciate your answer.
🚨 The R400 Billion Disaster
In 2007, South Africa was told that two new power stations would solve the electricity crisis once and for all.
Butttttt, fifteen to eighteen years and somewhere between R300 billion and R450 billion later, Medupi and Kusile became two of the most expensive coal power stations ever built.
Instead of ending load-shedding, they helped prolong it.
This is the story of how two flagship projects turned into one of the largest infrastructure failures in democratic South Africa.
I’m releasing Part 1 of the series, Darkness by Design - with both the full video documentary (YouTube and X) and the detailed written article dropping at the same time.
The trailer is live now.
The full episode and article drop this evening...

Digital ID is a backdoor into complete authoritarian control.
Do not let @CyrilRamaphosa's intentional fumble of illegal immigration and border situation dupe any of you into believing the solution he has been touting.
MyMzanzi is a scam. It's the ANC's way of trying to control you.
Don't like what he (or any other idiot) said on a Sunday "family" meeting and want to speak up about it? Good luck shopping for the next two weeks.
Drove over the speed limit slightly? Good luck being able to stop at the supermarket on the way home - you're now locked out of your own account and money.
Do not fall for it. They are baiting us into accepting their "solution" and also branding it as a form of "convenience" and "safety".
Oh and good luck to any large corporation that becomes, once again, the ANC's enforcer of these rules - bending over to the @GovernmentZA, rolling over and playing dead and enforcing the rules
South Africa’s proposed digital ID system is being presented as voluntary and convenient.
But at @LexLibertasOnX, we believe citizens should be very concerned. Even though it is called voluntary today, systems like these tend to become compulsory in practice.
Once banks, employers, and government departments start requiring the digital version, your physical ID card becomes second-class. What starts as optional can quickly become mandatory.
This system also creates a central record of where you go and what you access — powerful surveillance infrastructure in the hands of a government that has repeatedly shown admiration for highly centralised authoritarian models.
That’s why Lex Libertas has made an official submission to the Department of Home Affairs.
We need to show, however, that our concern is not a lone voice. If you are concerned about government overreach and the steady erosion of freedom and privacy, we need you to act with us.
Register your support, and add your voice to this campaign. The more people who take a stance, the harder it is for them to ignore us. Register your support at the link in the comments.

CEOs are quietly realizing the AI replacement plan has a problem.
Two problems, actually.
One: the token costs for running AI agents are now exceeding what they were paying the employees they fired.
Two: when the tokens run out, the AI stops. Just stops. No continuity. No workaround. Just a spinning wheel where your workforce used to be.
You fired humans to save money and bought a subscription that bills you into a corner.
The employees you let go knew what to do when things broke.
The AI just invoices you for the outage.
And then there’s the permission problem nobody wants to talk about.
To do its job, the AI agent needs access. Full access. Your systems, your patents, your contracts, your future plans. Everything you spent years building, handed over to a process that has no loyalty, no discretion, and no skin in the game.
You didn’t hire a replacement.
You gave a stranger with no soul the keys to everything you own.
Enjoy.
I have not seen anybody talking about what’s going on in Canada right now.
This man was pulled over and told by police that he had to come with them because a psychiatrist labeled him “certifiable.”
No paperwork, no rule of law, just a doctor saying that if he didn’t come with him right then and there that he would be arrested.
The fact that a government could do this is terrifying.
This is a heat map of the Stratos AI data centre in Utah.
A Utah State University physicist estimated the project’s thermal load at roughly 16 gigawatts, describing it as:
“About 23 atom bombs worth of energy dumped into this local environment every single day.”
British energy giant BP is facing a lawsuit over allegations that improper toxic waste disposal in two remote villages in northeastern Kenya killed thousands of livestock and caused cancer among hundreds of locals
