Comment Idea for transactions via Digital Signature (Score 1) 896

This establishes today, 10/10/2000, the idea for making secure Internet transactions (buying, selling, trading) via secure means using the newly passed U.S.laws making digital signatures legal. The transaction would involve the first consumer (buyer or seller) entity to interact with the second consumer(buyer or seller) entity, and then using the consumer's (or the seller)digital signature which is to be linked to a database with his/her credit card, debit account, checking account, or any other kind of account in which the user has funds or other comodities to trade with, and use an electronic tablet and stylus or any other stored representation of the consumer's signature to transfer the consumer's handwriting to electronic prints, and be processed over a network for verfication and to transfer funds or authority, to complete the transaction.
