Next Time You Enter a Cyber Cafe, Say Cheese
In The near future, when you walk into a cyber café, you will not just be asked for your name, address and proof of identification. A web camera device connected to a network system will click and record your photograph before you begin using the computer.
There’s more. In 32 districts where multiple purpose identity cards are to be issued by January 31 as part of a pilot project, residents could be asked to produce these cards as identity proof every time they use the services of a cyber café. •Cyber cafes may soon be fitted with web cameras that will take photographs of users •A pilot project in 32 districts will see multi-purpose ID cards being issued to residents, who will have to produce them every time they enter a cyber café •These recommendations from security agencies come in the backdrop of threatening email to VIPs and vital installations and terrorists’s growing penchant for techniology These are just two suggestions the government is considering for the rules it will have to notify under the recently introduced amendment to the IT Bill that is pending parliamentary approval.

The latest round of discussions held on the subject included representatives from the Ministry of Home Affairs, Intelligence Bureau, Research and Analysis Wing, Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, Enforcement Directorate, Military Intelligence and the Ministry of Information Technology. Sources told the Hindustan Times on Saturday that security agencies had made a strong pitch for a web camera to be compulsorily installed on cyber café computers across the country.
The recommendation gains significance in the light of the fact that last year, a majority of threats to VIPs, vital installations and national monuments were received on e-mail that originated from cyber cafes. Military Intelligence representatives are reported to have favoured the suggestion in the context of Jammu and Kashmir where the use of technology by militants is on the rise. There is a flip side though. Dr Gulshan Rai, director of the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team who also heads the Ministry of Information Technology’s divisions of e-Security and Cyber Law (Formulation and Enforcement) cautions that the rules will have to strike a balance between identification and harassment of cyber café users.
