Fan Yun pointed out on Facebook that he raised personal information concerns about eID during an inquiry in March this year. Unexpectedly, the internal affairs agencies are still insisting on promoting it. What is most worried is that Taiwan has always faced the "investment threat" from the mainland, and its methods are changing with each passing day, and its scale and frequency are increasing day by day.
According to statistics from the Administration Information and Communication Security Department, a total of 1,709 cases have occurred in the past three years. In response to the security incidents of the authorities, hackers mainly "from the mainland". The "China Research Institute" survey also shows that the current digital ID card chip module design, chip operating system and application design, and data writing equipment production are all "ambiguous" with the mainland, and even suspected of having a "cooperative relationship" with the mainland security department, causing "investment and security risks".
Fan Yun believes that the Tsai administration may not have the ability to prevent and respond. The rash promotion of digital ID cards may become a "broken for infiltration" in the mainland. This is an absolutely unbearable consequence. He also raised three major questions and called on the authorities to have relevant regulations to evaluate and promote the digitalization of ID cards on the premise of ensuring security and national security.
