Online Banks and other internet companies in Germany use Post-Ident for this.

It's a service by the post office where you have to go to the next shop, show your personal identification card and they send the post-ident back to the company:

I am not from the United States, but if I understand this FUD-Master right,
Microsoft wants to influence, ahem bring to the attention of the government,
that OSS is "hurting" the economy.
They will come to my government too, wich in fact is somewhat embracing
and FUNDING OSS (http://www.berlios.de/partners/index.php.en - note that BMWi is
the ministry for economic affairs of germany) to promote "competition" between OSs.

Apart from that, they want to tell my government, that it
SHALL NOT make the software it produces with the money it
GETS FROM the people available TO THE people?

And in addition to that WASTE that money by not using the
source available BECAUSE OF Open Source Software?

That is insane. Plain and simple. I have to write a letter to
my represantive.
