I can only see this going into a very dystopian path. Based on their actions, I don't trust these companies, their security practices, nor their privacy policies. Why would I give them my biometrics? And my full palm, at that!? Hell no!

I assume you don't take showers in public. We all have things we wish to keep private. When we give up some privacy we never get it back.

If people paid me to, I absolutely would. As long as i get some benefit in return, I don't care for privacy.

Not being paranoid about some imaginary evil? It's actually great. You should try it instead of making enemies of shit that don't matter.

Seeing that you are angry enough that you are willing to destroy private propertyto impose your own paranoid beliefs on others, you should try it, it might help your mental health.
