BugMeNot — a service that creates spoof entries for registration-required sites — has produced a mock registration form aimed at people associated with reg-reqd sites that exemplifies many of the critical problems with registration on the Web:
What percentage of sites do you visit that require registration?
What percentage would you be comfortable with?…
Would you be willing to have an RFID chip inserted under your skin in exchange for a free, 12 month newspaper subscription?
What if we told you that you couldn’t access news unless you agreed?
