A passport is a form of ID. If you store passport details in the cloud you'll still need some form of ID. I was at a security presentation the other day and the guy said that biometrics as ID was a bad idea. If your PIN or password or two factor authentication mechanism is compromised you can easily change it. Try changing your biometrics...... -- Regards brd Bernard Robertson-Dunn Sydney Australia email: [email protected] web: www.drbrd.com web: www.problemsfirst.com Blog: www.problemsfirst.com/blog _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
