I'm not grasping the difference between fingerprint scan and facial scan. Both have been ruled as acceptable and not covered by the 5th.
Are you arguing that fingerprint unlock and facial unlock should both be protected? I'm open to that argument, but I'm not seeing how they are any more testimonial than providing a fingerprint (or DNA sample) for matching other evidence?
- andrew_ 5y ago> Both have been ruled as acceptable and not covered by the 5th. As the article states, and some quick research would reveal, this is largely dependent upon which state, and which federal jurisdiction, the court is in. A final word has not been given on the matter and each court is allowed to interpret it as it chooses. As such, it has been ruled both for and against.
