Re: Multiple passports?
Date: Sun, 30 Oct 2005 03:05:25 + From: Justin [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I apply for a new one now, and then apply for a another one once the gov starts RFID-enabling them, will the first one be invalidated? Or can I have two passports, the one without RFID to use, and the one with RFID to play with? I am not a State Dept person, but my experiences in this are... If you get a new one, the old one has to accompany the application and is invalidated when the new one is issued. (Invalidated by stamping the 'data' page with big red block letters INVALID.) The old, now invalid is returned with the new one... The only people that I knew that had two passports were those with an Official (red) passport or a Diplomatic (black) passport. If they wanted to go play tourist, they had to also have a tourist (Blue) passport. As for applying for one now, I think the deadline for the non-RFID passwords is about 3 days away (31 Oct 2005), but I could be wrong. (In other words, if your application is not in processing by 31 Oct, then you get the new, improved, RFID passport.) Regards, Gregory Hicks -- The six phases of a project: I. Enthusiasm. IV. Search for the Guilty. II. Disillusionment. V. Punishment of the Innocent. III. Panic.VI. Praise Honor for the Nonparticipants. - I am perfectly capable of learning from my mistakes. I will surely learn a great deal today. A democracy is a sheep and two wolves deciding on what to have for lunch.

I have my suspicions, but I would prefer the opinions of those more immersed in the field. Well... Based on eBay's stated privacy policy, this will open up pen tracing to LEOs with just a phone call at the least. At the worst, Skype users will soon be getting new software that allows LEOs to backdoor skype crypto and get free access to those phone calls (also based on eBay's stated privacy policy...)

As I noted in a href=http://lists.elistx.com/archives/interesting-people/200509/msg00122.html; a recent IP posting/a, eBay's purchase of the popular Skype VoIP service (now official) leads to new concerns over the proprietary nature of Skype's security and encryption systems, which will now be under the control of an extremely large and powerful corporate entity. For eBay and Skype to have a chance of maintaining the goodwill and trust of Skype users, I call on Skype to forthwith release the specifications and implementation details of Skype's encryption and related technologies. This disclosure should ideally be made to the public, but at a minimum to an independent panel of respected security, privacy, and encryption experts, who can rigorously vet the Skype technology and make a public report regarding its security, reliability, and associated issues. --Lauren-- -- Powered by Movable Type Version 2.64 http://www.movabletype.org/
