Can I ask what the problem is with that? I really don't understand....perhaps I am being ignorant. What's the difference between that and presenting an AP with your picture? Or showing a drivers license as ID? Or using a PIN number at an ATM? All it is is a method of identification required by a private enterprise and it is much more fraud proof than any other method.

So when exactly does the insatiable desire for corporate collection of personal data become too much for you? Hair Samples, Iris scans, Saliva for DNA, Urine Samples? What right does a corporation have to this type of intrusion?

Well, I suppose, being a private enterprise, they have the right to ask for whatever they want. Just as they can ask for it, I can refuse and not accept their services. You are not harmed in anyway. It is a choice. Protest it all you want, and maybe it will make a difference and they will change their policy.

Now, I am not one for intrusion, but bio-identification (or whatever the proper term is) is here to stay and will only spread. I fail to see how the info could be used against me unless it was misidentified to another person. The security of this type of data does scare me in the world of ID theft.
