Access and Utilization
Access to school, university and municipality registry databases are typically limited to the law enforcement agency in charge of the registration program. Commercial registrars make their registration information available to law enforcement agencies on a wide scale by special request of the agency desiring such information. Peer-to-peer registries make their stolen bike information widely available to all persons (law enforcement and general public)via the Internet.

Famous quotes containing the words access and and/or access:
“Make thick my blood,
Stop up th’ access and passage to remorse,
That no compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell purpose.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The Hacker Ethic: Access to computers—and anything which might teach you something about the way the world works—should be unlimited and total.
Always yield to the Hands-On Imperative!
All information should be free.
Mistrust authority—promote decentralization.
Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not bogus criteria such as degrees, age, race, or position.
You can create art and beauty on a computer.
Computers can change your life for the better.”
—Steven Levy, U.S. writer. Hackers, ch. 2, “The Hacker Ethic,” pp. 27-33, Anchor Press, Doubleday (1984)
