After 1 years of struggle, my Japanese YouTube channel @55id (Go Go ID) has finally surpassed 1000 subscribers. Well, I have hardly updated it over the past six months, so it was only natural that growth stalled…

There is something I had planned to do once the channel exceeded 1000 subscribers. Namely:

Invite guests and interview them.

I had held off because I thought it might be rude to invite guests while the channel had far too few subscribers. My benchmark was 1000 subscribers, so I finally feel ready to begin. This is close to a list of topics I personally want to ask people about, but the prospective lineup, in no particular order, is:

  1. What Does the Word Subject Mean? Translating It as “Agent” Is Wrong!
  2. This Is How We Can Eliminate Phishing Losses! The Effects of Introducing Advanced Authentication and Passkeys
  3. Where OpenID for VC and Identity Wallets Stand Today
  4. To QWAC or Not to QWAC, That Is the Question
  5. What Is an mDL / Mobile Driver’s License?
  6. Problems with mDL and SD-JWT: Can ZKP Gain a Foothold?
  7. Shared Signals and Zero Trust
  8. Bringing the My Number Card to Mobile Devices
  9. I Tried Building a Passkey Provider
  10. The Goals of the DID/VC Co-Creation Consortium
  11. Thailand Government ID Wallet White Paper
  12. Thailand’s Government Digital Identity Standards

And so on. I have prospective guests in mind for each topic, but whether they will accept is another matter, so I do not really know how feasible these are. Still, I intend to pursue them.

Other Future Plans

For the YouTube channel @55id, I would like to produce solo streams in addition to programs featuring guests like these. The ideas currently under consideration, in no particular order, include:

  1. The Turbulent Voyage to OpenID Connect: From the XRI Timeline
  2. What We Gave Up in OpenID Connect and Expectations for Future Technologies
  3. The Road to DID: OpenID Was Extremely Self-Sovereign, but…
  4. What Is Authentication? What Is Authorization?
  5. An Impermanent Society: Defamation, Disinformation, and Privacy
  6. Third-Party Cookies and OpenID Connect
  7. Reading Group for the ID Book “Digital Identity” (Multiple Sessions)
  8. Reading Group for JIS X 9250 Privacy Framework (Multiple Sessions)
  9. Reading Group for NIST SP800-63-4 Second IPD (Multiple Sessions)
  10. Reading Group for the Revised EU DI ARF (Multiple Sessions)

And so on. If you have any other requests, please leave a comment here or in the YouTube channel community.

See you!
