REAL ID comments due tomorrow!
REAL ID comments due tomorrow!:
We're coming down to the wire on a campaign to encourage public comment on the Real ID proposal! Real ID will create a massive national ID system without adequate security or privacy safeguards. It will become more difficult for people to get licenses, and it will become easier for identity thieves to access the personal data of 245 million license and cardholders nationwide. More than 50 organizations and 130 bloggers have joined this effort. But we only have until May 8 and we need your help. To learn more and take action, visit the Privacy Coalition Stop Real ID page, send in comments, blog the page, watch a video, tell your friends.
