RE: Building A Biometric Database For An Entire Country

in #technology8 years ago

Biometrics are more valuable in Asia and the Middle East because those are the countries with governments attempting to control their population. The U.S. and Europe has all the information they need through voluntary sharing (SMS records, blogs, email, social media, facial recognition). The U.S. and Europe don't have secret police out to keep their people in line like Asian countries do. The "investment" in biometrics by these governments is not a good thing.
