Cursive handwriting is becoming a thing of the past, many schools no longer teach it. I read one article that handwriting itself may become a thing of the past, replaced by voice to text shorthand of sorts.

Most legal items, etc., require you sign your name in cursive, because print is easy to copy. If you've ever been effected by credit card fraud, the only thing that may save you is your signed name. I had to submit mine numerous times in front of detectives, about 20 times in a row on several occasions.

It may be simple, but giving up handwriting for technology is also another method of government control, where everything we say will be through some software program that can be spied on.
