DON'T WORRY, FAITHFUL CITIZEN. Your biometric passport will be perfectly, perfectly safe. Trust Your Masters. We know what's best for your security.

But of course when somebody does crack your passport -- or your biometric national ID drivers license -- they'll get far more juicy info, far more easily, than they would have in the old days when they'd have had to go to all the work of stealing or copying it.

(Found by Richard M. Smith and relayed via CASPIAN -- which also has an amusing take on the recent VeriChip hack.)
