my only problem, is since I know what "reasonable care" is, it's really
not much.

I'm not sure I believe in "privacy provisions" - since it's in lawyer
talk, it's usual not possible for the average user to actually know what
they say - I know that when I do bother to read them, I'm not any more
enlightened than I was before. So no, I'm not saying that at all.

I couldn't think of any others, but I'm sure there's more options
available. Perhaps I'll ask the perl mongers tomorrow, see what really
big boys do.

I was under the impression that we were allowed to comment without
having a replacement idea. I'm not actually saying we even NEED all
this verification - just that we need to think about it.
In my mind, I'd like to see something that requires more than 2 minutes
to spoof. The postcard idea floated could work, but it's not nearly
fast enough for instant gratification. Then again, if membership is
only required for voting, it might not really be a big deal.
