Come on then Kaos, enlighten us as to what monstrous things they will do with your fingerprints and DNA… :doze:

Sell them to insurance companies, and other corporations, who may then decide whether to insure you on the bike, based on the likelyhood, based on a DNA profile, of you suffering a stroke, or heart attack or any number of other ailments that may effect your ability to drive, or may even decide whether to hire you or not based on this profiling, who wants to hire someone who will be off sick with a disease, as compared to someone who is not.
Never seen Gattaca I am assuming?
Do not even need these idiots to sell them…they could just leave all the information on a harddrive at a train station…lord knows that has never happened!!
Once the information is collected and spread about, it will be nearly impossible to reclaim or contain it.
Ask Ryan Gigs about how hard it is to stop the spread of information once it is out there.

Actually I have seen Gattaca. Very good movie, and pure science fiction! I’ve also seen a movie that has been re-made in recent years, called Planet of the Apes. Does this mean we should start locking up all the chimps and gorrillas? :blink:
Yes, it could be left on a train, if it was something that was generally carried around in a briefcase/laptop, however considering the fact that the database is kept in a secure building that’s not very likely.
As for the government selling the information, there are laws against it! So they would be breaking the law! :doze:
So, it looks like you’re building your entire argument on what ifs…
As it stands there are a lot of criminals getting caught out by this database, and a lot of historic crimes being solved! Thankfully there were quite a few detectives in the last half century that believed in forensic advancement enough to actually keep the evidence archived until these procedures could be used.
