Vibrant democracies have placed personal freedom and liberty supreme even at the risk of prosperity. Are privacy and freedom synonymous? Is there line of demarcation? 

It is not uncommon that acts done in private which one is entitled could curtail your freedom. This is more often confronted by those in public life that darkens their image. Even the STATE (or by the powers that be) can leverage to black mail(?) the individuals. 

These are dissensions against collating the personal data for positive identification for digital transaction. While there can’t be any different opinion for ensuring the identities, the present debate against Aadhar seems to be misplaced. How authenticating a transaction after positive identification (with Aadhar) be considered an infringement on freedom? 

In a scenario where anybody privy to that data can eavesdrop on your activities? Logically it’s possible. The address and the telephone numbers…. linking them in a common data base… easy access to the wiki leaks – like genius?

Whether making it mandatory to link all the telephone numbers with Aadhar, over zealous? Will this prohibit a terrorist from getting a SIM which they are presently indulging covertly? If the answer is yes, then, since national security could not be compromised in the disguise of personal freedom, a saner mind would accept this exercise as an inevitable infringement. After all you will have  freedom only when these terrorists are restrained, isn’t it? 

There couldn’t be a better joke than pronouncing the digital data system can’t be hacked. It’s the duty of the state to be more responsible and provide adequate mechanism to desist any misuse of this massive database.
