In a society where the role of digitalization, convenience, ease, and speed, along with the awareness of data protection, and hyper-connection grow significantly more every day, one should expect conflicts between the readiness to combine - and therefore expose - one's physical identity with a digital twin. Most e-Businesses or mobile businesses rely on their customers' digital identity data. On the other hand, social media platforms and many online portals allow and tolerate fake, multiple, or non-verified digital identities.
