#2 If you want more security you have to trade off privacy. There isn't any other way.

Biometrics is a hot topic right now, and the best ways of identifying people will in all likelyhood not be the means we as people identify other people. A person's gait seems a good candidate becuase you can measure it at a distance.

Ignore the gee whiz! spin on Petabyte databases. There is already an Internet2 up and running and used to access existing databases of this size.

BTW, I am hugely optimistic about the potential for biometrics to dramatically improve our security.
