    Yeah..... NO....

    I only carry my Password when needed, which is not very often..

    It is not something I would risk being compromised by having it available 24/7/365

    Yeah, it sounds similar to me to having it written down on a post-it note, security-wise.

    I am picturing you having your passport info written down on a post-it note. Are you free associating passwords and PINS, or laughing at me?
    :)

    Neither, I think. :) I was saying that all of this digital ID management sounds akin to keeping your passwords written down. There have already
    been incidents where the trusted third party digital ID
    management/validation companies have been hacked and the data harvested.

    I still wouldn't trust it at this point. I think we are in agreement there.
