Maybe this was a trick question, but my point was simply that a person wishing to use a public utility or rent a car or fly on an airplane must allow himself to be identified before he makes a phone call or rents a car or flies on an airplane.
Caller ID is for privacy, primarily. It also not something that everyone deems necessary, it is an optional service some of us employ. You willingly give up that right when you call me, since I employ the use of Caller ID.
I willingly give up the right to privacy when I make use of the public domain. A business or transportation provider such as an airline has more at stake since it is in the public domain and held to a higher standard than an individual.

Calling someone and getting on an airplane are two entirely different acts.
One is done in almost total privacy, the other is entirely public.
One is benign (with some exception) regarding public safety, the other, by definition, is inherently always borderline.
One requires the permission of others beforehand, the other does not.
etc.
That's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it!Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

You mention that one of the two involves public safety. Are you referring to boarding an airliner as the greatest threat to public safety?[b] If we do not insist on Voter ID, how can we stop illegals from voting?
