Brits 'will sacrifice privacy for efficiency', Blair claims as he pushes for digital ID and facial recognition
Me: I'm not British, but I wouldn't want to make this trade off. Infuriatingly, Blair makes the case that this would make it so the hoards of illegal immigrants would stop coming into the country, but since the political leadership seems to want this, I assume they would issue a smartphone and digital ID to each immigrant no matter his legal status.
