[QUOTE BY= oost_oneiric] ...of Hilton Hotel employees in Niagara Falls. I have a friend who works at the front desk at the hotel and he just told me of this new "policy." They now will have to thumbscan to clock in and out. THIS IS REDICULOUS.
<br />
<br />The invasion of privacy is continuing ahead full speed. This is just another step. and a signifigant one. It's unclear yet if it's just a new company specific policy or if it is somehow federally or provincially required now (being so close to the border, "security threat", whatever). Either way I told my friend to fight it. To refuse. I'll update as I find out more.
<br />
<br />Next we'll have ID cards and retina scanning. Survelience cameras and implanted computer tracking chips under our skin. Complete and total lack of privacy. Continuous monitoring. This is sickening.
<br />
<br />Is thumb scanning required anywhere else yet?[/QUOTE]
<br />
<br />
<br />I don't know, but yeah I mentioned 1984 a while back regarding the "chips" approved by teh FDA that have "multiple purposes."
<br />
<br />I do know that any Canadian on a work visa may now have to be fingerprinted at the U.S. border.
<br />
<br />Cards are okay for getting into buildings after hours, but finerprints are ridiculous.
<br />
<br />
<br />Speaking of pricacy, all university applications in Ontario must now be submitted over the internet, and all community college apllications require: (get this)
<br />
<br />1 - an e-mail,
<br />
<br />2 - a SIN numner, and
<br />
<br />3 - a Visa or Mastercard number!
<br />
<br />This information also must be sent via the internet.
<br />
<br />Post-secondary schools are the worst for privacy.
