National Emergency

The following video represents what Biometrics should NOT become.  Which brings me to a question , how much security is too much? Would you appreciate having to take down your pants to access your work?

By the way, most of this technology does not actually exist, the only one that does exist is the hand scanner.

  1. My answer to this question is there needs to be enough security to keep people honest, so I guess if full body scanners have to come into play than so be it. People need to be more mad at the people breaking the rules rather than the people trying to prevent people from breaking them. An example of this is the full body scanners at the airports. If people wouldn't try and sneak things on to planes then this would not be a problem.

    1. I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn’t get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Doran helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I was skeptical at first but I took the risk to take a loan, and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I received a profit of $15,500 with an investment of $1500 within 7 days of trading , the most joy is that I can now take care of my family, i am just sharing my testimony on here. I don’t know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran, God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services. He can also help you recover your lost funds, For a perfect investment and good return on investment contact Mr Bernie Doran on Gmail : Berniedoransignals@gmail.com his telegram : IEBINARYFX or his whatsApp : 1 ( 424 ) 285 – 0682

  2. Very true, in an ideal society there would be minimal security and no need for it. However, unfortunately this is not the case. So how do we draw the line between what is allowed and what isn't?

  3. If certain biometrics can increase the security of an airport, I'm all for it. I haven't been to the airport since the scanners installment, but a few more minutes in a security line is worth the perceived benefits, IMHO.

    Maybe you draw the line at the point where biometrics are effective but not overused or inconvenient. Which, in fairness, is a difficult line to trace.

  4. I think sercurity is most critical when it comes to government secrets. So I wouldn't mind certain security measures being in place to safe guard important information. I don't know if I'd pull down my pants, though. However, I wouldn't have any problems submitting to a DNA test. If they were quicker and more automated, then I think that would be a good security measure.

  5. @ Michael- You are right that line is one that is difficult to decide and might be one that would do well with an upstream involvement of the public by the government or relevant agencies.

    @ J.D.- I completely agree, and in my opinion I would rather there be extra security than too few. Also it's interesting that you bring up DNA because there is currently debate between whether it counts as a Biometric tool or not, the topic of one of my future post perhaps.

  6. Its is a tough call because just as fast as these new technologies are being invented, some other genius is figuring out how to trick the scanner. Maybe I just watch too much 24, where almost everything can be hacked by someone

  7. Michelle's point is a good one--it sometimes seems that we just have an escalating cold war of technologies (hackers and firewalls come to mind). But I LOVE your point about this being a great area where upstream engagement could become important. The line, of course, is where we all agree to draw it.
