Mass collection of fingerprints or face scans from people is not standard.
- taeric 3y agoIt is probably more standard than you realize? Quick search shows over 14 million are enrolled in the airport program that requires iris scanning, as well as fingerprints.
- JohnFen 3y agoAre you talking about the US? 14 million out of a population of 340 million doesn't sound very standard to me.
- taeric 3y agoYes, US. And agreed it isn't majority, is why I gave the number. Should have made that clearer. Probably better to look at passport, if we are only talking about fingerprints. And that is about half of the US? Still not a majority, but I assume a lot of "standard" things aren't majority. I was pointing out that it is getting more widespread.
