Where? Auth hasnt even begin - save some miniscule, statistically insignificant pilots (the usual UIDAI ploy which will be tom tommed as a a grand success). Also read my next mail. As an interesting aside: The UIDAI specified error margins and duplicate verification system is such a hoot, that they cant even verify themselves how many false rejects or accepts are there. As per their specifications there will be well above 200 million duplicates or rejects, which translates to 200 million fakes - you dont know wether the Fprint is fake or the data is fake. Inorder to test you will have to register a statistically significant number, which is representative of our population. Then after a year or so you will have to get this same bunch to re-register. Then repeat after 1 year. Then and only then will you have meaningful data. The UIDAI has not done any such thing. Thei pilot was on 25000 people in 3 locations total 75000, and deliberately removed those with poor biometrics as "corner cases". BUT a study in Seoul by the driver licenec department found that 50% of the registered could not authenticate after a period of 2 years. Women rejects (household work) were significantly higher. I hope you dont miss th fact that these are urban middle class. Not the cattle class sub human village yokels on whose back the UIDAI crooks are making a pile. If you choose to be an idiot, that is your choice, but be an informed idiot. -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
