Descritto da qualche parte del ciclo della Guida Galattica per Autostoppisti, mi pare in "Addio, e grazie per tutto il pesce", come "la piu` grande vittoria della scienza su se` stessa e sul buon senso".
There are so many different ways in which you are required to provide absolute proof of your identity these days that life can easily become extremely tiresome just from that fact alone, never mind the deeper existential problems of trying to function as a coherent consciousness in an ambiguous universe.
Just look at cashpoint machines, for instance.
Queues of people standing around waiting to have their fingerprints read, their retinas scanned, bits of skin scraped from the nape of the neck and undergoing instant genetic analysis.
Hence the Ident-I-Eze.
This encodes every single piece of information about you, your body and your life into one all-purpose machine-readable card that you can carry around in your wallet, thereby representing technology’s greatest triumph to date over both itself and plain common sense.
