Can anyone say "Matrix"? As for the "3 letter agencies," I don't trust the government or any business with all the "new" personal information they are seeking. Such as the government with the Real ID Act, and companies collecting SS numbers. All it takes is one disgruntal employee to cause enough damage to disrupt customers and citizens information. Plus, remember China hacking into the Pentagon's computers? What if China or even Russia did the same with the "National ID Database" or Microsoft's "National Health Database." and such. tsk..tsk..tskk -------------------- |

Micro$oft must be losing the plot, to publicly apply for such an insidious sounding setup.
But it's no real surprise that they have. Perhaps they've heard that another company are developing something along these lines, and stuck a patent in just to jump the gun.  Personally, I've been using UBUNTU Linux for several weeks now, and although I'm a bit of a numpty with computers, it's pretty good. And just like the folks on here, there's a big friendly community to help with any problems. M$ will get no more money from me, so all their future projects will go unfinanced,obviously.

The bad news: Microsoft is thinking about coding this.
The good news: Microsoft will be the one coding this.

Whatever happen to civil disobedience? How many can they arrest. Resist! Don't just talk. Boycott companies that abuse your personal info.
