Uncle Sam Wants You to Have an Online ID
fox news ^ | 7/2/10 | Jay Bavisi co-founder of the EC-Council

Posted on 07/02/2010 3:18:19 PM PDT by Nachum

As our daily interactions and transactions have become increasingly “wired,” we have yet to see any truly comprehensive attempts at securing online identities.

Our complex system of usernames and passwords is astoundingly outdated and increasingly prone to security breaches and theft.

The feds have a dismal record when it comes to data systems, but you wait, they will run ours perfectly.

Just hand your information to your nearest ACORN/Organizing for America representative.

When that day comes, I will sell my computer, and take up whittling.

BIG BROTHER wants to know WHO is talking bad about him...waaahhhhhhh.

I wonder what he's going to call the American version of the Gestappo? (ACORN, maybe? Ya think?)

Jay Bavisi, co-founder of the EC-Council, writes: "The Identity Ecosystem would allow Americans to choose to obtain a single authenticated ID for online transactions."

"allow Americans to choose to obtain" - what? - their own universal tracking device!

Jay, congratulations, with that meme construction you became a full-fledge totalitarian whore.

Those federal idiots are actually trying to make the argument that the program “National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace” is VOLUNTARY.

Sure, voluntary as the program is initiated, wait until they decide to tie it all together to your SSN, TIN, all of that noise, then for “convenience”, how about having it chipped just below the surface of your skin?

****HELL NOOOOO!!!!****

I wonder what the left thinks about this idea?

One would think we actually would have common ground that this is a REALLY, REALLY bad idea.

You mean, minorities, poor, and female should have an ID too? Can we have voter ID law, then? /s

This from the same group of people who scream NO when a simple picture ID is suggested as a method of ID before voting.

That’s called situational ethics.

Just one more case of the Illegal-Kenyan-Socialist picking a fight with the citizens of the United States. Good luck government when the hackers get totally pissed off and turn your computers into scrambled eggs.

There are only 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don’t.
