Obama's Cyber Passports to Privacy Island

 The Obama White House Cybersecurity Czar Howard Schmidt and Commerce Secretary Gary Locke on Jan. 7, 2012 rolled out the Cyber Passport, "National Internet I.D. Card" for the Web. The Obama administration insists that this program, not mandatory presently, will deliver significant advantages to Internet users; however, protocol standards are unclear and implementation is not fully explained either at this time prior to voting on a Bill. "Pass it to find out what's in it!"

The White House advanced their government-approved  "Identity Ecosystem", that concentrates personal information collected from:

• Internet activities software such as "keyboard stroke loggers" storing every typed keystroke you tap and "packet sniffers" tracking confidential data intended to be private that intercept and decode packets of "raw data" disclosing various fields to analyze contents according to Request for Comments (RFC) Guidelines set by a Federal Government Peer Review Board and to also record all private log traffic over a user's personal digital network.

• Credentials such as user I.D.s or passwords are stored into a Federal Government Database. A smart card or USB flash drive is issued that would confirm an individual's identity when making online credit-card purchases, accessing electronic health care records, posting "anonymous" blog entries or even logging onto one's own home computer, according to administration documents.

Hidden TSA Security Cameras protecting travelers safety in our airport terminals.The Homeland Security and Cybersecurity Czar have problems about protecting passenger security at our National airports, keeping interlopers out of private White House parties and keeping all of our Top Secret Government data safe from organizations like WikiLeaks. Now, our own private computer Internet files about finances and personal activities are going to be turned over to the Federal Government.   

And, we are just supposed to trust this government now? What about our Constitutional protections of privacy, speech, press and association? Are they handed over to the Federal Government too?
