Disney World Collecting Fingerprints

Posted by Zonk on from the they're-not-pins dept.

cvd6262 writes "Disney World is now requiring all visitors to have their index and middle fingers scanned to gain entrance to the park. This started for season pass holders, but is now required for everyone." From the article: "'I think it's a step in the wrong direction,' Civil Liberties Union spokesman George Crossley said. 'I think it is a step toward collection of personal information on people regardless of what Disney says.'"

    Actually it's an imminent threat. Eminent has an entirely different meaning.

    What's scary is that people who can't even figure out the difference are voting.

    And are you the one who will protect the liberties of those who can not spell? Or is spelling a requirement of freedom?

    Seems to me the people in the middle east don't need to know how to spell, just how to wear a bomb. Same thing in london (hey, fuck them, they never did anything for me, why should i support them, when their enimies are people the british attacked. what is my interest, outside of seeing the big bad brits take one in the eye).
