Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the phenomenon of digital identity. Based on the analysis, the main approaches to the study of this phenomenon have been summarized, which can be classified according to the degree of comparison of digital identity with subjectivity. The first approach is based on the recognition of digital identity as a necessary equal (in relation to the real) addition to the integral image of the human "I". The second approach is associated with the understanding of digital identity as an auxiliary tool for the "expansion" of the person, acting as a copy, striving for "vitality" (humanization of the object). The third approach implies that digital identity is an object that determines social behavior (human objectification). The forms of digital identity manifestation are identified as agent and actor (actant). The potential risks associated with the presence of digital identity in the digital environment are outlined, with particular emphasis on social, psychological and physiological risks. It is proposed that the true content of identity be identified as its "core", which consists of value orientations and a substantive basis.
