Re: ID checks
I have always been in favour of basic ID cards. Name, date of birth and photo.
But every proposed ID card I have read about wants to have a magnetic strip (now a chip) containing access to further information, either on the card, or held in central databases.
And all managed by an NGO that hopes it would all be secure.
In the RAF, I was asked to identify the fake RAF ID card in a pile of 6. I spotted one immediately. But all 6 were fake in one way or another. And that was using mid-80s technology.
As for my present situation, the site is still crashing and freezing. The helpline is no help as usual.
