“We're getting closer and closer to a national ID card.”
Tim Sparapani
“If the Government is not afraid of anything, then it should renew all ID Cards immediately rather than extending them each year”
Joseph Muscat
“This is an important cultural moment. This is the first true national ID card.”
“ID can be hijacked, and cards can be faked. All of the 9/11 terrorists had fake IDs, yet they still got on the planes. If the British national ID card can't be faked, it will be the first on the planet.”
Bruce Schneier
“The government is not in the national ID card business; all the credentials (that the government issues) are related to the government.”
Dave Nelson
“We are naturally pleased that once again the Thai authorities have entrusted us to deliver biometrics for the national ID cards. We have calculated that this second phase of the project is worth about SEK 20 million in revenue during a three-year period. The revenue include licenses for Precise Match-on-Card™ technology and licenses for fingerprint readers, but we will also receive revenue from maintenance services and sales of hardware.”
Christer Bergman
“It is another form of back door compulsion in the same way that ID cards have been bolted on to passports.”
