    Thank you for submitting that clip, I personally do not agree with the comment made...
    I look at the matter almost the same as gun control...Taking away the legal allowance to something doesnt prevent those of illegal methods from obtaining what it is there after...But I do believe in strict monitoring to limit the likely hood

    I agree, if they do this it will only make it harder for us but without a doubt the 'bad guys' will have a way around it before anybody else does. If somebody is out there planning on stealing an identity they will find a way to do it, I do worry about it and I do not know what the answer is.
    It's the same as when the movie industry adds more & more technology to protect their products, there's a kid sitting in a room somewhere finding a way to crack it before the technology is even released.
    My 2 cents

    Thanks for the link

    Identity theft is not unique to the computerized era. In 1975, a female postal worker had used my identy to buy merchandise from a mail order concern, totaling in the thousands, and I only found out because UPS called me for a street address, they do not deliver to PO Boxes. We found her through the box number at the post office.

    No matter if Identity theft or gun control, those that do illegal things will do them, whatever the method. It is a kind of ignorance that makes people think that they can stop a thief by making his/her tools illegal as well as his/her actions.
