new RISKS digest notes that New York is running out of numbers to assign to fingerprint IDs, and will begin recycling soon (expect that go to smoothly); pranking cellphones with trojan horses; autonomous armed police robots in Thailand (Oh, there's a good idea...); the usual stupidities about those who use SSNs for ID (wasn't that once illegal?); and more! This one's well worth a perusal.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
