Sixt sent me a message encouraging me to check in early for my car rental. But to do so, I have to consent to a biometric face scan that their third-party contractor keeps on file. No thanks.

    Did they let you in without the thumb print or were you left out then?

      I went to Universal last year and I don’t remember having to give any fingerprint.

      I do remember having to do that for Disney ages ago though. Like, well over a decade ago. I didn’t think much of it at the time.

          I think you overestimate the efficacy of the vast majority of IT systems. My wife worked on a thumb print scanner and they never store more than a day’s worth of data before getting overwritten because why would you.
