Sixt sent me a message encouraging me to check in early for my car rental. But to do so, I have to consent to a biometric face scan that their third-party contractor keeps on file. No thanks.
NOPE
Solution: Boycott SIXT.
Hard pass
So many sites are asking for so much recently. Need some serious global regulations
I’ll consent to an anal scan.
Why not both?

Several years ago Universal Studios wanted my thumbprint to go through a gate. I politely refused, people I was with were annoyed, employee acted like me not giving my thumbprint was a hassle.
Did they let you in without the thumb print or were you left out then?
I went to Universal last year and I don’t remember having to give any fingerprint.
I do remember having to do that for Disney ages ago though. Like, well over a decade ago. I didn’t think much of it at the time.
They do a face scan. Their tiny print terms say they only keep it temporarily, but I don’t believe that at all.
I think you overestimate the efficacy of the vast majority of IT systems. My wife worked on a thumb print scanner and they never store more than a day’s worth of data before getting overwritten because why would you.
I’m not over estimating anything. They take the pic with a cellphone and it gets uploaded.
Yes, but most companies have such bad data management that it probably gets lost or overwritten very soon.
