I guess you are right. in Germany for example those systems are mandatory and they worked with a passport number in earlier days. Since 2004 there is a new law out which forces the webmaster to deliver some hardware to the user when he subscribes to a website.

He only gets access with this hardware and it has to be delivered by regular mail. of course there is money in it for those companies protecting website.
