Biometric Overdose

If you were already starting to get bored of the Biometrics topic, then skip this news item! There have been three more article on the subject, mostly tackling conceptual issues once again. The questions include some about the applicability of the technology -- since it is so far limited to people who cooperate. An interesting point made is that it will slowly happen around us before we even realise, and that's a scary thought. Finally, the issue of carrying passports with biometric information is debated in the UK. This would allow easy person/passport match checking, which would save time and effort when the technology becomes performant enough.
