The electronic identity card. The reaction of the Polish government on a new idea – Money.pl

Digitization Minister Anna Streżyńska announced the introduction of electronic identity cards in smartphones since 2017 years. The new ministry idea sparked a flurry of comments among Internet users. Here’s how the Poles reacted.

Among Internet users feared that the Polish administration, not cope with the challenge of the introduction of electronic identity cards. The biggest problem for them sluggishness and lack of competence of the officials. They add that the mere contact with the office via the Internet is still by way of the Passion, and the range of issues that can be settled electronic form is very limited. All this raises concerns that spent on this project money will simply be wasted.

Web users are wondering what the people who do not have and do not want to own a smartphone. As the argument suggests that the reform could lead to further exclusion of people, which now says that they are digitally excluded.

Another problem may be the theft of a smartphone by what we lose as evidence. This in turn could lead, for example, to take a loan on our account. Internet users are moving this issue often in the context of older people who have a problem with a simple service phone let alone assimilation of knowledge on digital security.

Among the negative reviews there are also such that the government’s proposal on the new evidence in electronic form may be a safer option than the present.

“to unlock stolen, found the phone, usually you need to know the password, or eg. a pattern or have a fingerprint. With a stolen wallet simply remove evidence from the appropriate compartment “- says the surfer Maciej. And he adds:” I do not understand where this assumption that the physical form of our documents and money are safer. “

A common theme emerging among Internet opinion is fear of surveillance. Show here on the recently introduced law on special services, which can lead to restrictions on the freedom of citizens. In their view, with the introduction of the electronic identity card, the service will have a powerful tool that will enable easy access to knowledge for all citizens.

For some, however, this is not justified argument. Writes surfer Bartosz ‘government and so he knows where we are and what we do. This is put into practice for a long time. After Poland can walk without phone or proof. It has to be the addition of easy life, optional “.

Some Internet users hope they look at a proposal for a new reform. They argue that the documents analog does not cease to exist, and citizens will have an additional tool with which they can skorzystać.W how? Examples of the use of electronic document indicates the surfer Peter the example of Estonia, where a similar system is functioning for many years. “Citizens of Estonia received the electronic identity cards with chip protected by a PIN. With this document Estonians can communicate officially with the authorities without leaving home. Every Estonian can go to the government and verify all information it gathered about the state. In the event of an unjustified use of the data they are entitled to a complaint to the Ombudsman protection of personal data. Citizen can find out about the status of its consideration of proposals and ongoing proceedings in his case. The electronic ID card allows you to authorize payments of health insurance, discharge pension contributions, paying taxes, and if necessary replace other documents, eg. Left home driving. “

The surfer Peter thereby silences those who joke that police for speeding in built-up areas will be used to take the drivers mobile phones.
