Fed ID and legal considerations

I recently came across this article from E-Commerce Times (via a Paul Madsen tweet) that is worth a read.  It provides a good high-level summary of legal considerations for federated identity implementations.  A quote:

“Many of the legal issues arise when things go wrong, such as incorrect identification, faulty authentication, or misuse of personal data…”

While it is US-based, it highlights many of the issues that we will face with Canadian implementations.
