The FBI’s new interest in personal databasing is believed to be part of a growing movement toward cataloging information on everyone in America. In addition to fingerprints, they’ll also be requesting photographs for the facial recognition component in their system.
A database of photos will make it easier for the agency and the government to track people as they move about, the EFF explains.
“This violates our democratic ideals and our societal belief that we should not treat people as criminals until they are proven guilty,” the digital rights organization argues.
The government’s expanding biometric database — coupled with the NSA’s effort to surveil all personal communication — will further enable the technocratic police state now going into place.
The government is less interested in catching criminals than it is in controlling the populace, especially a politically active populace that may threaten its monopoly of power.
What happened to being innocent until proven guilty? Not only does this violate the rights of American citizens, it’s a complete disregard for everything America once stood for. With the money it costs to do something like this, there’s far more in play than just catching criminals.
