The #USA Shows a 'Concerning #Lack_of_Regard for the #Privacy of People's #Biometric_Data |

"When it comes to the extensive and invasive use of biometric data, the USA is one of the #worst_offenders in the world, faring only slightly better than #China".

According to research conducted by #Comparitech, which rated 50 countries according to how, where and why biometrics were taken and how they are #stored, the US ranked as the #fourth worst country. Topping the list is China, followed by #Malaysia and #Pakistan.

While Comparitech did not look at every country in the world, its study did compare 50 of them. To give a country a rating out of 25, each was rated out of five in four categories (#storage, #CCTV, workplace, and #visas) according to how invasive and pervasive and the collection and use of biometrics is. Five questions were also applied to them, with each answer in the affirmative resulting in one point:

* Are biometrics used in #passports? Yes (1) / No (0)

* Does the #National_ID_card contain biometrics? Yes (1) / No (0)

* Has the country failed to introduce a law to #protect biometric #data? Yes (1) / No (0)

* Are biometrics being used in #banks? Yes (1) / No (0)

* Is biometric #voter_registration being used to a large extent? Yes (1) / No (0)

* The US was assigned a score of 20/25 for its #heavy use of biometrics, including growing use of #facial_recognition, without there being specific #laws to #protect citizens' #data. There was concern at the growing use of biometrics in the workplace.
