I wouldn't trust it either, but let's assume for a second that we do, and that we see benefits in biometric identification. Does it strike anyone else as rather weird that fingerprints have been chosen as the basis of it over all the other possible biometrics? We leave fingerprints on just about everything we touch everywhere we go, and they are relatively easy to lift and forge. This seems to me bad for both privacy and security. Why wouldn't, say, iris scans be preferable? -- Oleg Goldshmidt | p...@goldshmidt.org _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
