Wierd req from boss
-
My boss wants me to add a function in the customer sign up that checks a database against wanted terrorists and their alias names they are using. Anyone know if there is a public database to query for names and photos.
Why don't you ask him to give you the list?

Well, if you are provided said list its as easy as importing it into a database table, and using the normal search/lookup facilities provided by the Db (just like if you were searching for a customer).

My boss whent to some trade show and saw another company that had done this. They where querying a government database, so there is no list what i know of. I just get tired hearing of it and dont care much if its in or not, rather see something more useful get added to the software. I have never done something like this before and was hoping someone had done this before. I know the banks are now doing the same thing when you open a new account. and since the service our customers provide who uses our software could be used for terrorism he wants this as a sales pitch.

Ha you should only know how many diffrent banks and service companies that runs checks against goverment databases for people who is suspected of terrorist acts or involment and is wanted by FBI and Interpol. Its not a 10 people list. this is 1000 of peoples and aliases that is used out there both here in the states and in Europe.

Message box: "I see you entered the name ; this name appears on our list of suspected terrorists. Are you the suspected terrorist known as ?" [Yes] [No] If No -- Add user Else -- Go back and require the user to enter a new name

I get a dead link trying to access the readable version of the comic.
-- You have to explain to them [VB coders] what you mean by "typed". their first response is likely to be something like, "Of course my code is typed. Do you think i magically project it onto the screen with the power of my mind?" --- John Simmons / outlaw programmer

Now I'm picturing the S.W.A.T. teams from "The Blues Brothers" and "Brazil".

Alas, that was the best I could find at a moment's notice. I, of course, have it as a newspapaer clipping taped to my wall.
