T.I.A. comes to the UK at last (Heathrow Fingerprint Scanning to be a reality).

Having just finished watching the 'Last Enemy' on UK tv , I find the announcement of Fingerprint 'Control' rather alarming. The future of citizen control is coming soon to a country near you.

All this technology is being used to prove you 'Guilty' rather than to prove you innocent.

Want to borrow a library book sir ?  'Just scan your fingerprint please/ Want to complain about Council services sir ? 'Just scan your fingerprint sir so we know who you are 

Want to take some cash out of the ATM? .....Just scan your fingerprint.

I could go on but you get my drift.

The future is 1984.
