Did you read TFA? It would only be used for people entering the US.
- adventured 4y agoNobody in this thread apparently read it. This has turned into a Reddit America-bad thread, it's embarrassing for HN.
- jacquesm 4y agoSorry, I did read it and by my reading it looks like a non-reciprocal request for access to a lot of EU data that isn't supposed to leave the EU at all, ever, especially not in bulk. What alternative reading do you have? The problem with the approach outlined in the document is that it tries to break open the EU by approaching member states individually, possibly even to access data from other member states, something that I have a serious problem with.
- jeremyjh 4y agoThere is no "bulk" access to data. When visitors apply for a visa, they'd send a search request with biometric data (I assume fingerprints). Only if there was a hit - that the person was a known subject of interest such as a terrorist or wanted criminal, would any data be shared. This was outlined quite early in the linked slides.
- jacquesm 4y agoBesides complaining about people reading the article being against the guidelines, yes, I read it and yes, that would be exactly my position.
