On first boot, a program is run that asks the child for their name, takes their picture, and in the background generates an ECC key pair. The key pair is initially not protected by a passphrase, and is then used to sign the child's name and picture. This information and the signature are the child's 'digital identity'.
The laptop transmits the (SN, UUID, digital identity) tuple to the activation server. The mapping between a laptop and the user's identity is maintained by the country or regional authority for anti-theft purposes, but never reaches OLPC.
Sur le wiki olpc: Information on the laptop will be replicated to some centralized storage
place so that the student can recover it in the event that the laptop is lost,
stolen or destroyed.
Si ça permet pas des intrusions dans la sphère privée...
Le contrôle à distance, c'est déjà la possibilité de désactivation. Mais c'est aussi la possibilité de pister les connexions internet et les mails. D'ou la remarque sur l'UUID.
