Over the course of the last year, one third of credit card applications have been rejected due to poor credit. Due to the bad financial climate, lenders have had to tighten their lending criteria and that has caused problems for those with poor credit. Even credit cards that have been designed for people with poor credit are now harder to get accepted for than they were a few years ago. Equifax carried out the study that showed that a third of the people who were rejected didn’t know why. The reason is that banks in particular are pickier about who they lend to.
This paper offers an account of the perceptions of citizens from the U.K. and Germany on the subject of interoperable electronic identity (eID) systems. This study suggests that the perceived risks derive from, and are amplified by, low trust beliefs in public authorities responsible for identity management. Three dimensions of trustworthiness in government were found — competence, integrity and benevolence — constructed from negative past experiences of IT failures, function creep, and political history of oppression. Uno, Nessuno, Centomila ( One, No One and One Hundred Thousand ) is a classic novel by Italian playwright Luigi Pirandello.
