Republicans and conservatives, historically, have been the biggest opponents of a national ID because they don't want the federal government tracking them or asserting any control over anything.

Until trump, anyway...

    It's nice to see what could have been... Mine suffers from a lack of connectivity, can't even use it on Wi-Fi without constant disconnects.

    My previous keyboard phone was Nokia N900 which was incredible, if a bit small. I find the Pro1x to be too large for my hands, a phone about 4.5 or 5" would be ideal.

    There are no mass produced cases as I know. A couple people have released files to 3D print your own. I tried using a couple different materials, TPU feels the best but does add extra bulk to an already bulky device.

    Cognex Barcode Scanner is not open source but it is the best. It's basically just a demo frontend for a commercial barcode programming library so they are not trying to monetize the app itself. It supports everything! Not just QR code but every kind of barcode. I used to work in logistics and I used it to scan all the different barcodes on shipping labels.

    When you scan a barcode you can choose to open, copy, share. Open launches your default web browser. If the barcode isn't a URL, it all give a search option and you can configure your preferred search engine. It can scan images from your gallery or use your camera. But the important part is it won't do anything with the scanned data until you tell it to.
