My tattered passport


My tattered passport 12/24/2004 12:47 PM

I stupidly got a 10 year passport (instead of a 5 year) which is now approaching the final year in its life. It has become reasonably tattered. In particular, there is a corner of the passport cover just where the row of OCR characters starts. This corner is also the closest to my picture. It started as a minor peel. However, several immigration officers have picked at it trying to see if it was a fake (making it worse). Each time a brutal agent swipes it through the OCR scanner, it gets a little worse. I figure a little bit of glue would help protect this corner of my passport, but I wonder if putting glue on my passport to mend a tattered corner is some sort of crime... I googled around and couldn't find anything. All I found was an article about a Chinese woman who was thrown in jail for trying to enter the US with a tattered passport. Yikes!

The Oregonian
In their latest outrage, they jailed a Chinese businesswoman, whose misfortune -- and only crime -- was to arrive at the Portland International Airport with a tattered passport.

Portland immigration inspectors deemed Guo Liming's passport "suspicious." They forced her to strip to her underwear, searched her, interrogated her, handcuffed her for transport to The Dalles and jailed her for two nights -- before concluding [how inconvenient for them] that her passport was valid.

The problem is, getting a replacement passport in Japan requires giving up the one you have for a period longer than I am able to be in Japan for awhile.

Does anyone know anything about whether it would be dumb to try to put glue on my passport and if not, what sort of glue I should use? Basically, the corner is peeling into 3 layers. The cover, the paper and the lamination inside...

Microsoft's Passport to Longhorn


Microsoft's Passport to Longhorn 03/30/2005 01:22 AM
Microsoft will resurrect aspects of its Passport scheme in the upcoming versions of both Internet Explorer and Windows, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal. IE7 and Longhorn will utilise technology reminiscent of the much maligned Passport identity management scheme to enable Windows users to give encrypted personal details, including credit card and contact information to businesses and individuals they trust, the report says. Unlike Passport, however, an individual's personal data - to be named 'info cards' - will be stored with them rather than centrally with Microsoft. Passport received its death knell late last year when eBay rejected the technology. It had been criticised since its launch, however, with analyst firm Gartner warning that the technology wasn't secure enough for businesses and financial institutions.

walking around passport control


walking around passport control 09/02/2004 10:02 AM

I'm at an airport lounge in Frankfurt Airport and just had a weird experience. There was a huge line and passport control to get into the terminal with my departure gate for my next flight. I decided to go to the lounge. It was sort of a long walk, but when I arrived and asked how to get to my gate, they said it was around the corner - with no security or passport control. Somehow I just "walked around" the passport control.

Now I realize that this is inter-terminal passport control so I have no idea what sort of border it represents, but being able to walk around it seems a bit weird to me...

Microsoft to stop marketing Passport


Microsoft to stop marketing Passport 12/30/2004 11:16 AM
The newspaper said the software giant had confirmed the step down after one of the service's biggest backers, eBay Inc. (EBAY: news, chart, profile), said Wednesday it would stop using Passport next month in favor of its own product. It said few customers had taken up the Microsoft (MSFT: news, chart, profile) service. Passport keeps track of online consumers' credit card and password information as they move from site to site. It has drawn the ire of privacy advocates, industry regulators and technology security experts, who in 2003 found a security glitch that could have led to massive identity theft, the paper said.
