Want a Photo of You Signing the Register?
It may soon be outlawed.
Somebody with nothing better to do with their time is stirring up a fuss about photographing the Register and data protection.
They are claiming that by photographing the ‘real’ Register that the photographs may invade other the privacy of other people that have signed on the same page. And of course they are waving the ‘identity theft’ scares around at the same time - and just to make it sound a bit more of a ‘legal’ issue, rather than a ‘busy body’ issue, they say that the photos may breach Crown copyright.
There is no information contained in the Register that can’t be found elsewhere so it all seems a bit daft.
With that said, many Register offices have already adopted a policy of using a fake book for the photos, including those offices in Liverpool, Swindon, Durham and Wolverhampton.
Just when you thought things could not get any more bonkers….
