Former PM Tony Blair has suggested the UK needs compulsory ID cards and massive roll out of facial recognition tech to counter what he calls 'populism'.
Do you think ID cards are a good idea or is Blair out of touch again?

Good idea, lets get them out to people now, use the data held on driving licences / passports and NI numbers.
All below is registered with a card not physically in their hands, but should carry ID last point.
Anyone arriving at a NHS facility that hasn't got an ID card, does not get treated and will be reported / arrested.
Any business that employs a person without an ID card, 6 months prison on first offence.
Any person stopped / arrested for whatever crime that does not have a card, and should not be in the country deport.
Make a temp card available in other countries to people seeking asylum and can prove their identity, they can then use that card to arrive via any route. If any person arrives seeking asylum without a card, deport them straight away.

I don't like either, but Facial Recognition combined with AI is inevitable. Essentially it will mean every aspect of our lives is tracked.The potential for fraud and/or bl@ckm@il is enormous. That's why it's not a good idea to post face pics on sites like this. |
