    When I put my logic hat on, it seems to make sense to me. People in the mortgage industry have some very secure information just a click away. Do I want a background check on anyone that could look up my SSN and and credit information? Without a doubt.
    there's a pretty big difference between a background check and holding somebody's fingerprints on file.

    So....clear them initially on the original background check and then delete them forever? I'd say that would be a handy thing to have on file in case an employee gets a wild hair to start ripping off peoples identity's.

    So basically we just presume everybody's guilty?

    What do you mean clear them initially? Are everyone's fingerprints automatically on file?

    :D Probably best to have their DNA on file too... just in case they cut their hands off... hmm... maybe we should just cut their hands off first and keep them AS DNA? Ya know... preventative measures and all that :cool:

    I just don't get the paranoia of having your fingerprints on file for industry regulation, customs or whatever.

    The only reasoning that I am hearing here is "they could use it to frame me"... Do you honestly believe that if the cops/gov't wanted to frame you, it would take them more than 10 minutes of following you around to be able to get your fingerprints off of something that you touched?

    and why would they bother when they can just make everyone give up their prints?

    And I've given other reasons... they don't NEED them.. they're mine... what the fuck do they want with them? Also anything that's held on computer database anywhere has the potential to be hacked... so if you're not worried about the govt, at least spare a thought for the hackers.

    In Hong Kong they thumbprint you when you get your Hong Kong Identity card. Makes customs a breeze at the airport. Insert card, put your thumb on a thumbprint reader and away you go. What could take an hour now takes 30 seconds.
