      It isn't wikipedia, its a news organization. Even so, they still provide tons of sources and links to the government's own documents. Get real buddy.

          This is so stupid, I can't even respond in haiku... Did you even READ the actual article? I mean the article, not the spin provided on InfoWars. Here, I'll make this REALLY easy for you... Here[^] is the actual article it refers to, and if you use your few remaining brain cells, you'll see that this has NOTHING to do with stopping you from getting online. What they're trying to do is establish a common standard for identity management companies to provide a secure login to make PURCHASES and few BANKING and MEDICAL records. The point is that you could use an RSA-style token to prove your identity before the site will be able to process your credit card. The government isn't even trying to control this. They're just setting up standards so multiple companies can administrate it, but still have their systems interoperate, so you won't need one token for each site you're logging into that requires it. They're not even making it mandatory, just available, kind of like SSL encryption. Now, given that information... What's your next stupid objection?

              You have to be one of the most stupid people I've ever heard of (and I've been around long enough to meet a lot of idiots). You don't think about anything, at all: everything, for you, is a knee-jerk reaction fueled by your fundamental ignorance and sheer, pig headed inability to admit that you are wrong. You are so bound up in conspiracies that you wouldn't recognize the truth if you saw it. Pitiful.

                          Something similar has been working in the UK for a while now When finishing online transactions with your debit / credit card. The transaction is then sent to your bank for authorisation and the bank then requests that you complete a security process that you set up the first time you try online purchasing. The have been different type of securty systems on bank accounts for years including card tokens

                            I have that on my HSBC account, my partner got given a device that's similar to the RSA key fob which needs her to put her card in, type the PIN in and then use the code she gets back from that on the site itself. It seems alot fo steps to me but hey, that's security.

                                    been an american doesn't make you more than a third world ape, what's the difference? oh yeah, I have a job as a professional programmer I get paid tons of money for doing it, I don't work delivering pizza or making breakfast, this third world ape is doing something you wish you could do, this third world ape speaks 3 different languages, this third world ape has a masters degree, this third world ape has a successful life, what about you? living in a basement? thinking you're a programmer? thinking you're a chef when you don't even have a job in neither field? what's your salary? 7 USD/hour? pfft, please come back an insult me when you finish high school and get a better job than mine.

                                    I want to die like my grandfather- asleep, not like the passengers in his car, screaming!

                                      Being a programmer is no different from being a child who knows how to use a computer. It is common knowledge. Software sucks these days because of so called "programmers" like yourself. Third world scum writing trash that hardly works. I never said I was a programmer, I am a Software Engineer. Someone who actually knows the ins and outs of a computer, who started with DOS and assembly language. Get a clue moron, you are an HTML "programmer".

                                        Piece of advice, kiddo... Your "l33t h4x0r" skills, however imaginary, are utterly meaningless in the real world if you can't interact with other human beings. Any programmer can write code, but a GOOD programmer can communicate with his peers and end users to figure out what needs to be written. If you ever actually found a programming job, you'd realize that treating other people like inferiors just because they aren't white, male, libertarian disciples of Alex Jones, doesn't earn you any accolades. And for the record... Programmer, Software Engineer, Software Developer, Systems Analyst... They're all just words. I could call myself anything from Code Monkey to department CTO, all of which would be valid, but it doesn't make me any more or less talented. If you're really going to insult him for calling himself a "Programmer," you've really run out of ammo.
