What country doesn't do fingerprinting? The entire world seems about the same in terms of surveillance.

    Oh dear, things have worsened since I last looked, including 29 EU states just late this year.

    EU passports and ID already have the fingerprint stored digitally on them. If a EU nation wants to they can just get the fingerprint of every EU citizen that enters their country by air. Technically illegal but who’s gonna stop them.
