why do you see this as the government assuming you are a potential criminal?Without having gone through this thread yet (so I'm not sure how many people have already said it), I don't like the idea that the government is viewing me as a suspected potential criminal at all times. There is no way that this would be done with transparency and enough security to ensure that no breaches would occur, etiher from outsiders or from those who work in the relevant department having access. I would rather that my government trusted me enough to assume that I am not a potential criminal until proven to be one.
I see it as the government acknowledging "you are one of us, here is your membership card".
