The system might use a smart identity card, or a digital credential  7  to a specific computer, and would authenticate users at a range of online services.

Users could 9 which system to join, and only registered users whose identities have been authenticated could navigate those systems. The approach contrasts with one that would require an Internet driver’s license  10  by the government.

        The plan has also been greeted with  18  by some experts, who worry that the “voluntary ecosystem” would still leave much of the Internet  19 .They argue that should be  20  to register and identify themselves, in drivers must be licensed to drive on public roads.
