I read an article related to this a couple of weeks ago. Apparently some bars have these scanning devices... the bouncer swipes your driver's license, and if you're 21+ you're allowed in. At the same time, though, the machine records and stores everything on your license, name, age, sex, hair color, SSN, etc. Some convenience stores also use it to card for cigarettes.

It raises serious privacy concerns... if I go to a bar, the only thing the bouncer or bartender should be concerned with is that I'm 21+ - end of story. Just how much info is on these campus ID cards??
