Microsoft warns ID cards pose massive security risk

Just seen this in the Silicon.com newsletter. As an old-fashioned liberal, I'm idealogically opposed to ID cards in the first place, but more than anything the thought of my ultimate digital identity sloshing around in the chaos of a Guvmint IT project fills me with deep existential dread. I've seen those Sci-Fi movies where the person is wiped from the evil Guvmint database and ceases to exist. That'll be all of us over here, that will.
