Do you think it will cut fraud or will it be used for big brother monitoring & targeting ???
I have my reservations about all this, as no doubt the cost for a passport will go up to pay for these centres, but also people getting personal information off u unnecessarily. Do i beleive it cuts fraud - not as much as the claims & in the wrong hands could be potentionally dangerous!! Also yet again the minority of the population will not be able to afford a passport, so really will this stop criminality of fraud. Also the information claimed to be able to check into all your history & all records against u - surely is a breach of civil privacy & personal stuff - that strangers in passport offices & who ever else can know ALL about u, also open to abuse this information!! How often i go for a pee should need to be up for anyone to know about gee is nowt private.
Im not convinced are u?
