First of all, I confess to being slightly paranoid. I never discuss anything of import on anything but a land line. I won't have a wireless phone in my house. And I don't use wireless network routers or anything else.
I hate tracking cookies, discount cards, and anything that invades my privacy even for my own good.
I was highly offended when my insurance company sent me a "I hear you've been diagnosed with diabetes" packet. I'd far prefer that the doctors have packets for those insurance companies she is affiliated with and handed it to me herself.
But I find this idea very bothersome and worse than whatever problem the government is trying to cure. It smacks of identity papers, and it very certainly seems an invasion of privacy.
