Schneier on National ID Cards, Key Escrow Locks, E-voting

Schneier's Cryptogram newsletter this month touches on a lot of subjects near and dear to our hearts: national ID cards, TSA-approved luggage locks, a cost-benefit analysis of stealing an election via hacking evoting machines, a nifty credit with audible security, etc.

So you'd support the freedom to have "consensual" sex with a 6 year old?
Do you think anyone should be allowed to own nuclear weapons?
Should I be free to drink and drive?

Your freedoms should end when they threaten someone elses freedoms (whether intentional or not). Furthermore certain protections should be made for those that can't protect themselves.

And yes science can be to rational (to most people) in opposition to emotional response.

Animal Research, rationally it's an effective means of testing.
The most rational way to discipline children would be brainwashing.
To truly figure out the effects of cold on the human body, the rational way to do is to test it on humans.
Rationally research data should be freely published even if it was research commited through acts of genocide.
