- hjnilsson 13y agoThey'll grow back eventually. So cutting off is the only option.
- therobot24 13y agoI hardly doubt cutting them off is the only option. Tissue damage is definitely required, but burning (such as a chemical burn) would also work.
- RyJones 13y agoI don't have fingerprints. A large part of the world population doesn't have readable prints. What now? People on blood thinners, elderly people, Asians, women all have less distinctive prints. I don't have prints due to psoriasis. Fingerprints are a horrible biometric.
- gfodor 13y agoSaying that fingerprints are a bad biometric because some people can't use them is like saying escalators are a bad idea because some people can't use them. They might be a bad biometric but it's not because they aren't universally available to everyone.
- RyJones 13y agoWhen it's used as a gate, it is an issue. It took the Seattle PD and whatever agency actually issues civilian CAC (HSPD-12) a long, long time to get enough prints to allow me access to do my job. Both eventually had to accept three very partial prints as evidence.
