Really what are they, physically. I'm having a hard time conceptualizing what they are. Are they like an RFID'd card? Something on your Comlink? Something implanted in to you? Does the SIN database contain fingerprints? DNA? Retinal Scans? Pictures?
I know they can be scanned, but can you ever have it not on you? When you have a fake one have you stolen someone's identity either living or dead? Or did someone along the path have a government contact who created a person who doesn't really exist? |

Thanks for the replys. Another question. Lets say you left evidence at a crime scene; hair, fingerprints, etc..... Now lets say you have a true identity SIN and several fake SINS. What would a search against the evidence bring back?
Are fake SINs really only useful if you have no true registered identity? This post has been edited by Lachdanan: Jul 16 2010, 07:44 PM |
