Biometrics is on its move.. By the fact that the US are introducing biometric passports (using fingerprints) by next November and the EU introducing in 2007 new ID-cards with multiple biometric profiles like fingerprint and iris, biometrics is becoming the hottest technology issues in the near future. Everyone has to relate to this new technology, but what are the personal risks, how well will these new passports and ID-cards protect each one of us from fraud? Can a potential misuse be achieved just by replacing ones biometrics profiles with another person? Of course not, they will be individual crypted by a key that is not stored on the passport/ID card, but again, keys has been known to be cracked or stolen? To improve the security even more one can distort the information in the biometric profiles, but how well will that work? Each one of us should take care and make sure that these biometrics passport, ID cards, drivers licence, ATM cards etc are secure and safe from being misused as the authentication by biometric profiles are better than anything else of today and should be considered as a step forward in securing our personal security and interests.

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called 2m. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name 2m~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
