For a “company owned by humanity” in which every person in the world has one vote, a method is needed to verify that the online identity belongs to a real person. It is also necessary to ensure that people do not register multiple times. What solutions could be used to ensure this? Which of these solutions could be implemented on a small scale with little effort, and which could theoretically be scaled to the entire world population?
One possibility would be to organize events in different locations around the world where digital identification codes are handed out to all participants, enabling them to vote online during the next time slot (e.g. 6 months). If the codes are handed out at the same time all over the world, it is not possible for one person to collect more than one code for a time slot.
