My attempt to make a single sign on capability like the military uses for home users. It also includes some expanded functionality for businesses. It's limited to 30 seconds, so it's rather short.

Problems with the Global Web
After watching a video presentation from Kevin Kelly (Kelly,
2007), I found myself at odds with some of the ideas he was proposing. The video briefly looked at the first 5,000
days of the web and entertained what will happen in the future 5,000 days.
I do think the web is amazing and it has come a long
way. I couldn’t do the job I do today
without it. I do feel what he is saying
will likely come to pass in the next 5,000 days, but I have reservations with
the consequences of what that could mean.
The primary problem I have is with one system knowing
everything about me. While I don’t do anything
wrong (legally), and I’m sure it would help to catch criminals, I have a
problem with Big Brother (or Big Sis these days) watching my every move. Not that I’m particularly interesting, but I
don’t want to be a target of a future government. Look at what Hitler did with the Jewish people
during the Holocaust (Browning, 2004).
That was without technology; just imagine his reach to classifying and
identifying individuals with a technology like this. I do think most humans out there want the
world to be a better place and will do the right thing, but I do feel there is
always a minority of these insane individuals that may somehow grab power. Our US Constitution and its protection of our
freedom is something I take seriously. Handing
a vile leader the means to usurp our society on a silver platter is not my idea
of a technology I would want in my world.
