Moreover, the security of a birth cert is questionable, to say the least. Birt certs are public information in many jurisdictions, for example I should be able to get a copy of anyone's birth certificate here, with little effort. My point here is that the End User is applying for IP addresses or ASNs, not a large mortgage or the nuclear launch codes. The bureaucratic effort neccessary should be *proportional* to the goal. The NCC has the authority to de-register resources anyway, should an identity prove to be fraudulent after the fact. rgds, Sascha Luck
