The id system should be strictly id based not history based. A person I know had once mentioned that after it was compulsory for army jawans to wear their name on their uniform, their behavior was more civilised. Thats the purpose of this CIS system. It will not help us detect a person's intentions but it will ensure that no faceless person simply goes about conning people or walks into a public place, plants a bomb and walks away or will keep changing ids after every crime. Knowledge of a person's id acts as a natural control over behavior.
Rony, i believe you were the one who preached about individual privacy, and didnt want to be captured on camera in GLUG meets? Think about the consequences when it will be easy for taporis to easily identify women for example?
