Cell phones for personal ID? | Telecom Consumer Discussion Forums

Similarly, I find this idea a little bit too hazardous

Smartphones have been constantly the center of debates related to privacy and protection of personal data. If authorities will decide to implement copies of ID cards on a network, it will fuel even more people`s concern about the protection of their personal data

On the other hand, if authorities use the images recorded by smartphones, to capture drivers running from an accident, I think it`s a measure that can be easily accepted by people

I don’t think this will be a good idea. Phones are easily stolen or lost. It’s not very safe using it as an identification. Stealing someone’s identity will be one of the problems when the government start to do this.

There are few smartphones, such as the one created by Boeing, enhanced for self-destruction, but they are expensive, as consequence can`t be used by the majority of users worldwide

All in all, at this moment, we aren`t prepared for this revolution
