It's not just the fingerprints, they have the scan of the retina for the entire population.

It's a disaster waiting to happen.

I'm not sure retina is included in every passport. We're not a member of the EU, but our IDs and passports are compatible.

We have encrypted face biometry and fingerprints on them, but no retina. None of the countries I have visited required my retina scan, either.

In the older versions, some data was unencrypted, and most encryption was optional, and someone built a passport scanner and made a talk. I remember that some heads are proverbially rolled and some specifications are updated.

Na, the one that me and the parent are referring to does not apply for visitors. It's for all citizens of India that have opted for the Adhaar card (which is pretty much the entire population).

What retina scanners do they use? I've been trying to get some to do 3FA on high security areas for years and can't find any that seem decent. (Note that iris scanning is completely different than retina scanning, and is just about as useless as face scanning.)

India is a disaster already happening.
