LSE study against ID cards
A London School of Economics (LSE) study has come out strongly against the government’s ID card scheme. The 115 page report by the Department of Information Systems supports the idea of a national identity system, but not the one being proposed.
“The proposed system unnecessarily introduces, at a national level, a new tier of technological and organisational infrastructure that will carry associated risks of failure. A fully integrated national system of this complexity and importance will be technologically precarious and could itself become a target for attacks by terrorists or others.”
