Biometric Authorization is an Invasion of Privacy. People Believe That Their Safety Depends Upon Sacrificing Boundaries of Where the Government Can Invade Their Lives.

Biometric authorization is one way that employers can keep track of their employees while they are on the job. But biometrics plays a far more important role these days than keeping track of workers.

It is an invasion of privacy. Biometrics are used as a method of surveillance, allowing government and law enforcement to identify an individual in a crowd or to verify identification.

Since September 11, 2001, the biometric industry has been making a lot of money.

Many airports in the United States and in other countries have installed facial recognition software to quickly and automatically identify people who are on their most wanted lists.

Casinos are using biometrics to identify known cheaters, so they can be removed from the premises. There are some biometrics systems that have been installed in health care facilities to secure computer access and store patient data.

Biometric authorization is supposedly a way of ensuring those people who have access to a certain system are the only ones using it, though hacking into systems has already been done.

While many businesses and corporations are already using biometrics, it will be government and law enforcement who will become the biggest users.

The ability to have so much information about individuals contained in connected databases is far too alluring for those working toward a police state government in North America.

Violation of the 1st Amendment

With the wide spread use of biometrics, many civil liberties and privacy advocates are concerned about what the effects of facial recognition are going to do to the 1st Amendment of the Constitution.

For instance, when Americans are part of public demonstrations, facial recognition software can be used to identify them, which would allow the United States government to build a database of known protesters.

The use of massive databases means the personal information of Americans are accessible to government and law enforcement as well as anyone who is able to get into the system.

You have the right to know that your personal information is safe and secure and that it won’t be used for any other reason than it’s intended, but that is no longer guaranteed.

Databases with personal information are growing as the task of cataloging every citizen begins in earnest as governments, in the pay of the global elite, begin building police state authorities to replace outdated agreements like the Constitution.

Monitoring the Workplace

Privacy and civil liberties advocates often say you check your privacy rights at the door when you enter the workplace.

And now, with biometric authorization ready to use, privacy in the work place will no longer be as private as it once was. More and more employers are going to start using biometrics to monitor their employees.

The legal stand the employers take is that they own the computer and phone systems their employees are using and therefore they have the right to know what workers are doing when they’re on the job.

Biometrics can be used to keep track of when employees come to work and then leave.

For instance, every time an employee enters the work premises they will have their fingerprint read or their face scanned to verify not only that they work there, but also the time at which they came to work.

Employees will be tracked coming and going, and some businesses may even go so far as to keep track of their employees’ activities while on the job.

Loss of Human Dignity

Biometric authorization and authentication techniques have the ability to create a society that is closed minded and security oriented.

Americans are supposedly free individuals who live in a supposedly free country, but how much longer will they be able to say this when biometrics take away our basic human rights?

Biometrics gives the government all the tools they need to keep track of us as though we were nothing more than cattle. Everywhere we go and everything we do will become available for scrutiny by someone.

We’ll no longer be individuals, but rather a number in a database that matches up to our fingerprints, photo, and retinal scans.

The use of biometrics for tracking strips away human freedom and dignity and moves humanity one step closer to slavery to the greedy global elite.
