InfoWorld – RECOVERY – Ellison offers free software for national ID.
There has been an ongoing debate in the U.S. during recent years regarding the creation of a national ID card system, based on the existing Social Security card, that would include a centralized computer-based registry of all U.S. citizens. While some government officials in the past have advocated the creation of such a system as a means of curtailing illegal immigration in the U.S., organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union have repeatedly voiced their opposition to the plan.
