Why Obama's National Internet ID Solution is a Really, REALLY Bad Idea

11. This is truly a scary idea. Almost as scary as electronic medical records.

If it's on the internet in any way, it can be obtained by hacking.

You know that spot of gonorrhea you got when you were 18? You could put it behindyou, & never make THAT mistake again. But in the age of electronic medical records, it will follow you around for the rest of your life. Your doctors will be reading about it when you're 80.

That abortion you had 30 years ago? It's there on the internet for pro-life wacko hackers to find out about.

And now they also want us to have an internet ID. Just one number for a hacker to get and go wild with. Like your social security number. The key to everything you have and everything you are. One number.

One of the reasons they give is so that we won't have to keep track of all those pesky passwords. I don't have a problem keeping trackof my pesky passwords. Yes, they're pesky. But I don't need a nanny telling me SHE'S going to take that task over.
