Online check in Good or Bad

Media Convergence is enriching our lives in every point, making things easier,faster and simple than ever before.  An example of this would be online check in services which some airlines offer. This allows people to check in 24 hours earlier and jump  queues, allowing faster access to flights. This  also means people can arrive at the later time and aren't forced to wait at the airport hours before. One may argue that this is a great invention, but however there are more risks within using such services E.G. increasing the risk and opportunity of fraud. Is it really a good idea to upload your personal details to a website you trust with your informaition? Which could be accessed by anyone who would have the ability to hack into the system. Yes media convergence offers many rewards but are these outweighed  by the risks, with more case of online fraud being reported and increasing  every year.
