The fact that they even would create such a feature is suspect. Apple is full of brilliant people. These people know that this featured would be used by probably 90% or more of iPhone users. And it's not like they need your finger print when all your other information is added to the phones database. lol it's a feature. It was most likely requested by tons of people. They already have access to literally anything should they go that route, you think they need your finger prints for something? They could already Jack your accounts and such, so is Apple framing you for a crime? No, they don't need it. That's why it's voluntary. You just repeated what I said...

What makes it "suspect". What do you think Apple would do with your thumbprint?

1. Lol @ thinking the optional fingerprint thing is going to lead to the world being taken over
2. If the world is taken over it won't be in this lifetime, so why do you care?

He's not saying the finger print thing. He's saying technology. 2. Why do I care? I've only got twenty or thirty more years. So why do I care? Here is why.

Not necessarily Apple, but another company or entity that could use the information. The government already monitors phone activity and have implemented tactics to counter terrorism. What's to stop them or some force with even more power to try and take control?

Craig pretty much summed up what I'm actually saying. I'm not saying Apple is the end all be all to world domination. I'm just proposing that they could be a partner in helping the process. I care because I'm aware of evil and it's my life mission to fight against evil. I'm sure people thought space travel was asinine at some point too. Nobody's laughing now.

A finger print is a known staple of identity in our society. They could be passing it along to whom ever hired them. Bear in mind this is all theoretical.

I get the fear of someone gaining too much information, but who cares about the fingerprint thing? lol
