LFN Launches Digital ID Resistance Project – It’s Time to Speak Up

Extract: At the request of our supporters, Liberty Fighters Network (LFN) has launched a focused national project to oppose the South African government’s planned Digital Identity (DID) system. While we are already managing over 20 ongoing public interest cases with minimal support, this initiative responds directly to the growing public concern over state surveillance, privacy erosion, and the quiet normalisation of digital control.

Our newly published discussion document, “To Digital ID, or not to go digital, that is the question,” unpacks the legal, ethical and practical implications of DIDs in plain language. We now invite every South African to engage, contribute opinions, and join the call to ensure participation in such systems remains voluntary — not compulsory by design or stealth.

At the request of our loyal supporters, the Liberty Fighters Network (LFN) is proud to announce the official launch of a national project aimed at investigating, exposing, and challenging the South African government’s Digital ID (DID) rollout.

This initiative comes at a time when millions of South Africans are unaware — or worse, complacent — about a massive shift in how the state plans to control personal identity, movement, and access to public services. The DID system, under the government’s MyMzansi Digital Public Infrastructure project, proposes linking every South African to a centralised biometric and data-driven identity network. But who really benefits? And what are the consequences of silence?

This project was not born from strategy, but necessity. Our supporters demanded it, despite LFN already carrying the heavy burden of more than 20 active public interest cases and hundreds of others for individuals — most of which our community appears to have forgotten. These are the very matters we once marched, rallied, and wrote about together — now left to a shrinking group of volunteers still trying to hold the line.

In the face of growing indifference and the rise of chaos as a new norm, too many have turned their attention to “influencers” who offer no real solutions, no legal work, and no court cases — just online sensationalism and media-driven panic. Meanwhile, the real work, the filings, the affidavits, and the late nights — go unseen.

We are calling on South Africans to participate meaningfully. Read our published discussion document: “To Digital ID, or not to go digital, that is the question.” Understand the real implications. Share your thoughts. Submit your concerns. Help us prepare the ground for legal challenges and social resistance where needed — while it is still lawful to do so.
