US airports will now scan your face and store it for up to 75 years. Visitors may be asked for DNA. (scored.co)

They’ve been doing facial recognition photos for at least a couple years now and I never had to submit a photo or do any sort of special scan at any point ever. They just already had it from a passport or drivers license or whatever espionage they already had. So I guess I can sit back and be angry if I want, but this isn’t changing any data the government already has. I’m not going to be so naive to assume they don’t have anything on my DNA either.

Let’s just face it, if the government really wants us, they will get us.

There's a difference between a flat low resolution passport photo and your 3D face. They want all the 3D geometry in high resolution and any other data they can get their hands on, preferably with your consent to store and use it, which they are now taking as implied by use of an airport. Getting DNA tied to people's identities is also hard to do in large numbers, but using airports will make it easy. We must resist the incremental erosion of our freedoms or there will be nothing left to fight for.

I’m just saying it’s not new at least regarding the face. It’s been going on at least two years if not longer at large airports. That picture of the white guy in the black backpack in the article is of existing reality that’s exactly what it looks like. I don’t know how they obtained my face otherwise, but they already had it by virtue of having used their facial recognition on me prior to me having provided it to them.

So you're saying that emp's at data vaults is the only solution?
