	The Laws of Identity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		This lack of agreement arises because digital identity is related to context, and the Internet, while being a single technical framework, is experienced through a thousand kinds of content in at least as many different contexts—all of which flourish on top of that underlying framework.
		Digital identity systems must be designed so the disclosure of identifying information is limited to parties having a necessary and justifiable place in a given identity relationship.
		If she does, a short-lived unidirectional identity relation could be established between the computer and the projector—providing a secure connection while divulging the least possible identifying information in accordance with the law of minimal disclosure.

	Felix Stalder: Digital Identities Patterns in Information Flows
		Identity is dynamic and unstable; it is the result of negotiations between claims and counterclaims; it reflects and defines the relationships between individuals and their environment; and, the way identity is built or deconstructed is deeply dependent on the communication technologies available.
		For sociologists, identity, in the classic formulation of Peter Berger (1963), is "socially bestowed, socially maintained and socially transformed." It is sometimes analyzed in terms of behaviour that allows to recognize someone as a member of a specific group.
		Identity and fixity are the enemies of communication and have to be combated by nomadism and collective identity.

	Digitial Identity in Cyberspace
		Digital environments have inherent differences from real space which causes this discrepancy, and when implementing an identity system for cyberspace one needs to consider more than just the architectural nature of the system - any system chosen will have social repercussions which need to be also taken into account.
		Today, digital certificates are issued with all information in one certificate, and there is a dependence on the user to keep their certificates from being stolen or used by others.
		To trace the identity, therefore, the law enforcement agent would have to contact the web site and demand to know which pseudonym is related to a known transaction, followed by a similar request to the certificate authority about the real identity associated with the pseudonym.

	Microsoft's Vision for an Identity Metasystem (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Studying the Passport experience and other digital identity initiatives throughout the industry led us to work with a wide range of industry experts to codify a set of principles that we believe are fundamental to a successful, broadly adopted, and enduring digital identity system on the Internet.
		Digital identities consist of sets of claims made about the subject of the identity, where "claims" are pieces of information about the subject that the issuer asserts are valid.
		An identity metasystem, as defined by the Laws of Identity, would supply a unifying fabric of digital identity, utilizing existing and future identity systems, providing interoperability between them, and enabling the creation of a consistent and straightforward user interface to them all.

	Identity Gang - Digital Identity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Of course, in some contexts, a description ([[Digital Identity]]) may be specific enough that it can only apply to a single subject within that context.
		The emergence of a "digital identity" concept that includes lots of information about people (OK, subjects), not just unique identifiers and authenticators, is reflective of the growth of the Internet to support the wide range interests of many people, not just the accountability requirements of the managers of expensive resources.
		While this may be new thinking regarding identity in the digital realm, in fact it is a straighforward alignment of online identity with traditional notions of personal identity as "stuff about you that is shared with others".

		A Digital Identity is the representation of a human identity that is used in a distributed network interaction with other machines or people...
		Further, just because you have an identity when the police are protecting you doesn't mean that you have an identity when there's no question about who you are; once your identity has become public knowledge and taken for granted, people aren't going to talk about it any more.
		But within the digital world, there's only information, so digital ID connects one bundle of information with another; e.g., the information on this form can be trusted because it accords with information from some trusted source.

		As we pass through the world, we give off information about cultural identity (ethnicity, sex, age, etc), social class, individual personality (through dress or physical alterations) and psychological state (through movement and tone of voice).
		In computer-mediated communication (CMC), the performance of identity occurs not through direct experience of the body but within the constraints of digital representations constructed by interactive systems.
		Furthermore, researchers interested in reputation, trust, privacy and vulnerability; social networks, identity, persistent conversations, and context are encouraged to apply.
