Re: National Security : e-Passport



It is not about my privacy that I am talking about. If it is a digital evidence, the Government can always get along with things. Like if there is something happening internally within some bureau, then previously it was at least tough to produce fake US passports. If it is e-Passport, I suppose that issues, can be carried away by the bureau's without even legally getting permissions for those. Come on, every incident that happens inside US cannot happen without an Inside hand. "Every huge kingdoms, that have been well knows, has been destroyed in the past from within". Identity theft, faking passports, making illegal passports, etc can also happen within. How does Government plan to answer those ???

Yes, there is discussion, and your privacy doesn't seem to be particularly important to the government. You may wish to look at Bruce Shneier's take on it (www.schneier.com , he's written several articles).

US is now bringing in e-passport, I believe as a compulsary thing. Is Security not an issue in this. What if there is a vulnerability where everyone's privacy is lost. Is there any discussion about this in the security community?
