I don't know what illegal databases have to do with it , but I wonder
about Ian and him making it up as he goes along.

} 8 Years ago, after a long struggle I finally got a bus pass - very useful.
} 2 years ago, the local busses all installed readers for the RFID chip in
} the card and now we just lay the card on the reader.
}
} In my case it prints a ticket saying "Disabled" and a multi digit number.
} I wonder what the number links to and what else is on record.

You must have a special one just for you.
Everyone else has a buspass that does not have to be read by anything.
I, and everyone else that I know, just show the pass and a free ticket is
printed out. My busspass has never left my wallet since I got it. It is
viewable through a clear plastic window.
There is a barcode on the back, but it has never been used so far.

} BTW there is no magstripe, smart chip (like a credit card) or any other
} indication that it is more than a simple card. No one told me that it was
} machine readable when I got it.
}
} I can't see any reason why our government would want to follow disabled
} and old people around. When I first found out, it made me wonder about
} other, innocuous cards such as my driving licence. Obviously they can
} check our movements via our credit cards which is why, when I bought
} tobacco in other European countries I always paid cash.
} A lot of people I know try to pay cash. They don't give away any details
} such as surnames, addresses, 'phone numbers, unless, like me, they have a
} PAYG unregistered mobile.
}
} Just a way of life in a Police State.
