Easier to secure than to have thousands of different systems made by
different people.
I've always dreamed about the coolness of getting like every person in the
USA's name/birth/ssn/address, seeding a huge encrypted file all over
bittorrent, then dropping the password to open it. Wouldn't that be
insane? It'd like shut down everything all at once.
All because of a number issues by the gov't that was never supposed to be
used for identification.
