If you want proof that protecting personal information is a hard thing and that Data Rejection is a key technology, read this report from the Washington Post:

“I used to watch you sometimes when you weren’t looking. What struck me particularly was your interest in the grip. You knew, like every real expert, that a true player can be recognized by [...]
Here’s some info hot of the press - or rather, hot off the Ping Toolkit’s readme.
The SourceID InfoCard STS Toolkit for Java is a library and simple framework for writing server-side applications which interact with the Microsoft InfoCard identity system (InfoCard is itself also still a work-in-progress as of this writing).
Microsoft InfoCard is an identity [...]
It’s hard to believe my eyes but the Ping People seem to be right out there on the forward edge of the innovation heat wave…
They’ve just released a toolkit through which you can build applications that support InfoCards wherever you can run Java. You can download it here. Unfortunately the download page [...]
There is a new Apache Software Foundation (ASF) site run by Hans Granqvist and dedicated to a project that is intended as an incubator for thinking and innovation around Identity 2.0. The project is known as TSIK (Trust Services Integration Toolkit) and joins the WSS4J initiative as a possible foundation for Apache’s identity [...]
