The closed-circuit monitoring cameras in the stores you shop in every day
Which are not in my home, and do not require me to go out of my way to identify myself.
The key fob to your car or office that records each use
Which I do not have, which does not require fingerprints, and you can still chose to use a plain key, can't you?
The smartphone that captures GPS data when you take a snapshot
Which I do not own. Isn't it meant as a convenience for the person taking the photo, as opposed to a means of tracking them? Can't people switch that off? I know they can remove geotagging with software that can edit metadata, and that really is not illegal or objectionable in any way.
Your credit card
I have one for online purchases I can't pay any other way (unlike most people I know, who don't have a credit card at all). Anyone who pays with plastic when it's an option, that's their lookout.
Your checks
Never wrote a check. (They are outdated over here.)
Your grocery store member card
Never got one.
Your account with your electric company
They do not require biometric data every time I switch the light on.
Your account with your cable operator
We've got a satellite dish, but even when we had cable, they did not require biometric data every time I switch the TV on. Or have a camera in our sitting room we make sure we don't invite so many people we should pay additional fees for "public viewing".
Your account with your ISP
They do not require biometric data every time I log in.
Your driver's license number
What does that have to do with anything? I guess I have seen the occasional website that offers it as a suggestion for the "secret question" when you forget your password, but that's it.
The VIN on your car
When is that even relevant? When is it read? What does this have to do with fingerprints?
It's more secure than all of those things; and no more intrusive
Having biometric data checked is bloody intrusive.
Fingerprinting is something done to criminals or suspects. Being automatically turned into a suspect because I bought a book is vile.
