I believe id.me is a corporation that sells your personal data, and the identity-holder doesn't benefit from id.me selling their data. Their privacy policy makes mention of list-scrubbing services and marketing uses of data, and other shady things that I understand are quite normal in the US, but make me nervous.

This is part of what I was referring to by "conflicts of interest": I don't see how any private corporation could possibly be trusted to do this.

I agree with you that this is something that should be served either publicly or with extremely strong regulatory oversight.

I was pointing them out more from a product perspective, I think the fact that it’s so genuinely useful product validates everything you said.
