Please note: This post was written some time ago (22 years ago). I was only 24 years old when this post was written. My perspectives, knowledge, and opinions may have evolved significantly since then.

So Microsoft wants to control the national ID initiative with its .NET passport system. They want to issue every citizen a passport and then use the insecure protocol to run the national ID system. I guess what is worse, is that the U.S. is considering useing the technology. damn. I don’t know what to think. I think that maybe it would be cool. In that sort of wierd shadowrun kind of way. What ever.. I just hope I get to be an orc or something like that.



this is crazy.
