Why shouldn't we use biometrics for security?
Because you can't change them once they are compromised. It breaks so many rules for security it isn't funny.
Why are companies/government pushing for this?
It is not about security, it is about tracking. This is the opposite of security and if we continue to allow it we will have severe consequences in our future.
