Hi,

Same for the USA, the land of the regulated and the home of the paranoid.

It's just a sign of the times.

When I came into the USA for the summit they wanted a urine, faeces,
blood and semen sample.  I gave them my underpants.

Cheers,

Wayne

Sales out of citizen freedom.

It will be soon possible to combine all the data of cameras with face
recognition software, bank- and creditcard data, flight data etc to make
moving, money- or what ever profile anybody wishs to do.
It's more than scary.

Why do you consider it "unhuman" (inhuman?)?

Hi,

The man with the rubber glove is inhumane, personally I don't find
finger printing that invasive.

The man with the rubber glove is inhumane
His visage near drives me insane
But just as I bend
A woman steps in
Does she notice that my grimace is feigned?

wouldn't that depend on which side she sees?

there are of course a whole bunch of reasons....
 - taking fingerprints and photos is the classical method of treating
criminals to identify possible crime actions on the location of a crime
- in Japan ONLY foreigners have to give their fingerprints, regardless
of their status, this means even those of us, who have a permanent
residence ship will have to give their fingerprints and are being
photographed every time they enter Japan
Some Japanese politicians say, this will make Japan more secure,
implying that all foreigners ARE criminals - this is what we would call
discrimination. Same thing if you start calling a person with dark color
of the skin "kaffir" or "nigger".
More information can be found here:

Thanks and all the best

Matthias

She enters with such enthusiastic zest,
I begin to think that she is the best...
My brow loses it's furrow,
She is very thorough!
Smiling, she says "Sir! This is not a DNA test!
