And if you refuse to, they will only let you enter an IRS local office physically if you have a Real ID.

The nature of the verification service blocks anyone who is homeless or rural people who live off the grid in the woods or lives in an RV.

Effectively, this locks out of the system anyone who refuses to participate on their terms, and thus such people are helpless to counter the IRS should it penalize you.

My issue with this is that the IRS requirement forces one to have to have a paid service - phone service - to access one's records. Such access should be free, not bound to a commercial service nor forcing people to spend money if they need to interact with the government.

It's concerning but to me skeptical for a minute they also have a requirement to protect the information of people and we ask know they're a constant target of scanners 🤷‍♂️ Maybe it's lacking some alternative verification process

Yeah, I understand. They are faced with all sorts of criminal activity. And on the Internet, 'no one knows you're a dog' as the famous cartoon once said.

I note that the trend now is for such things as crypto to move to 2FA, and regular banks online access is going to 2FA too. Everything requiring high security. I guess it is the future. But still it is more lockdown, and we are moving to a future of lockdowns.

There's got to be a better way. Distributed identify verification for instance where there are private and shared secrets.

It's is not a government organization. So long as osha violates federal law than neither are they

Correct.

The department of Treasury was outsourced years ago and the irs is absolutely not a government organization. It has no weight of law behind anything it does. It violates the Constitution daily. Doesn't stop the bag guys with the guns from stealing your shit, though.

That Arron Russo documentary is highly enlightening. "America: freedom to fascism"
