And you get to build a database for any state agencies that might be interested in buying (or taking)!
- loudmax 5y ago> build a database for any state agencies As opposed to building a database for private agencies?
- vletal 5y agoThey mean pub key / certificate fingerprints. Gosh... :)
- danuker 5y agoHuh? Is building a database of actual finger fingerprints not worthwhile?
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoNot really, unless you're trying to build up a private fingerprint collection which can't be used for criminal cases anyway.
- doctoboggan 5y agoI’ll happily engrave your public key on a ring!
- doctoboggan 5y agoWhen I started this I spent some time googling to see what sort of harm came come from your fingerprints being leaked and I couldn’t find anything concrete. It’s not trivial to take a photo of a fingerprint and turn it into something capable of fooling a smartphone fingerprint reader. Someone with the ability to do that probably also have the ability to lift your print from the thousands of things you touch in your daily life.
- moron4hire 5y agoAs opposed to the database the state agencies already have because they take your fingerprints when you get ID?
