My Way News - Prosecutors say man stole 130M credit card numbers: "Federal prosecutors on Monday charged a Miami man with the largest case of credit and debit card data theft ever in the United States, accusing the one-time government informant of swiping 130 million accounts on top of 40 million he stole previously."

Comment: I suspect that no matter what kind of identification we use or what commercial encryption vendors use, criminals will always find a way to steal. It's just a non-stop battle between commerce and crime that has gone on for centuries and will continue long after we are gone. I mention this only to note that one of the largest sectors of the economy that would have the most to lose in moving to a Mark of the Beast economy is the criminal sector. Nothing would kill the black market faster than commerce enabled by state mandated ID. For now though, cash is king for the global black market in data, drugs and death.
