24hr Fitness Starting To Use Fingerprint Scan In?!?!?

[wallyhopp]

The problem is, in fine print somewhere, or a security break, leaks out all these finger prints to a national database. So now you dont even need to have a prior conviction to get "caught"

I don't see the problem with it...

I just don't want them to find out that I'm using someone else's card.

yup. that's actually one of the biggest compaints from the front desk staff. it makes the front desk job easier/less relevant without having to check your birthdate/phone number . plus the nighttime shift can just sleep without being bothered.

but if you have privacy issues then just don't do it...

What's sad is the general population will adhere to the new policy without even blinking an eye.
You are using a computer.  I'm sure you have a cell phone.

They are tracking you already.

I'm not important enough in the grand scheme of the government's conspiracy theory web to give a !@#@. 

My last job required a finger scan to punch in, but that was because people were having their friends punch them in.

If Uncle Sam wants to track you it will, they don't need 24 Hour Fitness to do it either

.

What is truly sad is that conspiracy theorists can't live with the fact that we are tracked from birth, as soon as they slap that SSN on you. 

Should I be

, that they know how often I hit the gym?

Their reason for implementing this fingerprint system is that it checks people in faster.  How much faster is it to scan your fingerprint AND type in a 10 digit code than to just have the person at the counter just scan your card??!?! 

24hr trying to be skynet... Weak...

Just another way for big brother to keep tabs on where you were and what time you was there. Just like you said ppl wont think twice and just do this not thinking about the meaning behind it. For example the microchips, there are ppl who are voluntarily getting the chips inserted in them

 

They gonna sell this information to third party marketing companies, along with your info.
They also gonna give this info to the gov.
I'd burn my membership before giving my print
