I heard today on NPR that they're pretty much giving the information out to anyone in the UK too. Some woman was (and I think this is right) registering her child for a public school in a posh area and instead of having her prove her residence by any of the normal means (home visit, utility bill, um...asking?) they instead asked for a copy of her driver's license. They then used the drivers license information to access her car information and then proceeded to pull the camera information on her. For two weeks! All around town. How's that for an abuse of power. Which is why everyone has to be super careful about ideas that seem harmless, good, beneficial. Inevitably, someone, somewhere, will see its potential for evil or at least impropriety
