Assignment April 14th 2008

Personally I think the government has every individual marked down as a number for them to keep track of even before technology was out there. Our social insurance numbers are 1 proof of that. How do you think they manage to pay people for say family allowence, welfare, GST and so on. They can access everything about you just by having that number plus they can do it anytime anywhere without permission from anyone. Alot of places will let you know that when your asked your info its for the place only and that they will not leek out your information. Then there is those places that do leek it out which is scarey that after awhile numerous places have access to your info. When ever I am asked I return the question to what for? I hate to really give out info just because no one really knows whats lurking on the net. I have a friend who after purchasing tickets for the movies throught the bank machine, he comes to find out few weeks later that his saving account is gone and his in debt...all because some jack ass from the movie theater stole his information as he entered it into the interact machine.
