In England, mobile phones will be on passports

    Soon, all Britons who will enter into contracts with mobile operators may begin to enter in the national database . You can only connect with the presentation of a passport or other official identification card. For our latitudes there is nothing surprising in this, but in the UK people began to resent , although this is far from official information, but just rumors about negotiations between the authorities and mobile operator Vodafone.

    Currently in the UK there are 40 million subscribers on prepaid tariffs - SIM cards that can be bought for cash in any communication salon without presenting documents.

    According to British libertarians, the government is trying to deploy a global tracking system for all citizens of the country. For England, this is especially true, because this country is the world leader in the number of outdoor surveillance cameras per capita. And if the government still gets access to the base of the physical location of all citizens at any moment of time (the GSM-servers of the operators allow tracking this), then the full “1984” will come.

    One way or another, but the database of 72 million mobile phone owners will be linked to other databases with private information within the framework of a single system that is being created in the UK to fight terrorism (the specially created GCHQ center is just starting to install “black boxes” on channels communications of Internet providers - an analogue of the Russian SORM system).
