Starting this summer, the government will test a system in which foreign tourists will be able to verify their identities and buy things at stores using only their fingerprints.
The government hopes to increase the number of foreign tourists by using the system to prevent crime and relieve users from the necessity of carrying cash or credit cards. It aims to realize the system by the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The experiment will have inbound tourists register their fingerprints and other data, such as credit card information, at airports and elsewhere.
Tourists would then be able to conduct tax exemption procedures and make purchases after verifying their identities by placing two fingers on special devices installed at stores.
The Inns and Hotels Law requires foreign tourists to show their passports when they check into ryokan inns or hotels.
The government plans to substitute fingerprint authentication for that requirement.
A total of 300 souvenir shops, restaurants, hotels and other establishments will participate in the experiment. They are located in areas that are popular among foreign tourists such as Hakone, Kamakura, Yugawara in Kanagawa Prefecture, and Atami in Shizuoka Prefecture.
The government plans to gradually expand the experiment by next spring, to cover areas including tourist sites in the Tohoku region and urban districts in Nagoya.
It hopes to realize the system throughout the country, including Tokyo, by 2020.
Introducing the system is part of the government’s efforts to increase the annual number of foreign tourists to 40 million by 2020.
It is also aiming to demonstrate the country’s advanced technology by having tourists use the system when they visit Japan for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
Data concerning how and where foreign tourists use the system will be managed by a consultative body....

Just great——like the concept of the “self-driving” car (total usurping of all power and need for a Mind-—Control over your life and movement and recording of everywhere you go—controlled by a centralized government/corporation). The automobile invention/Ford was a MAJOR disappointment and setback to the super elites NWO/railroad monopolies—mass control of all movement of the “little man”.
Totalitarian control of all aspects of Life is the object. When the State has total control of all monetary transactions/all exchanges of goods will be monitored and controlled by a central controller (and it will be EVIL).
The Mind of an individual can NEVER make a decision that Big Brother does not allow and control. They will control all you can do and think from cradle to grave and you will be dead, if you are not a slave to the State, where Slavery is Freedom (Brave New World)....LOL
So many useful idiots like Lenin and the Communists knew...and why they devised the Prussian system of mass indoctrination in the 30s in America and earlier in Europe and Russia, which already had centralized control of all States so indoctrination and dumbing-down for slavery was simpler in Europe. The “Kill God”—(anti-Christianity) movement so vice (slavery) could be normalized in children and Up is Down, Boys are Girls and Slavery is Freedom. The theology that created Free Will and Individualism has to be destroyed so children are only capable of thinking like a serf and tribal person-—no ability for abstract, profound thinking which created the Age of Reason and the US Constitution.
Slaves have to be dumb—to be “happy slaves” as Fichte (1810) knew. Let the elite sodomites control all the money and tax the Virtuous so they can become wealthy and set up their family and friends to be millionaires and control every HOUR of your pathetic slave life once they have digitalized “money”-—total control over every single human transaction so they can literally starve to death the people who don’t want to be in their slave system.
It assumes that the system is able to get a positive match of just one of the prints on file, and is correct all if the time.
Not going to happen, and consumers will be mad.
Straight out of “The Velvet Monkeywrench”.

This will be touted as a feature to keep you protected.
Always thought that picture was perfect in describing it. When I had conversations with certain voters in 2008, they seemed to have a similar look on their face. A complete rejection of reality and baseless hope in a new, mostly-unknown, and what-was-known-wasn’t-good, “messiah”.
And in 2008:
Step 1: Elect Obama
Step 2: Hail him as “lord and savior” /Jamie Foxx and others
Step 3: ??????
Step 4: Profit!
I bet the index finger is the 50 dollar bill.
pinky probably a buck.

For ‘Peace and Safety’ - the trademark meme they all use in dividing Israel - prophesied as so in the Bible - they also use ‘peace and security’ - found in a different translation of the same passage.
A Jewish state living side by side with a Palestinian state, in “peace and security” - now just need a political leader to confirm such a deal for about, oh, 7 lunar years, or 2,520 days.
Just imagine if world “leaders” spoke about “peace and security”:
A Jewish state living side by side with a Palestinian state, in “peace and security”
World “leaders” speak about “peace and security”:
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 English Standard Version (ESV) - The Day of the Lord
5:1 Now concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need to have anything written to you.
2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.
3 While people are saying, “There is -—peace and security-—,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
4 But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

I think I remember that image from a Chick publication.
Correct?
[Doesn’t say how your fingerprint gets tied to your bank accountaccount or credit card account.]
Doesn’t here, either. BUT they obviously know how they’re gonna do it. It’s not that hard, frankly.
From late 2011:

They have no idea where this is going. I expect it will happen right here in the old U.S.A., too.
I haven’t read any of those in years.
Come Lord Jesus. This place is out of control.
Agree. Where I see this going is that they will "discover" that fingerprints are not nearly as efficient or "secure" enough, for some of the reasons listed by astute posters on this thread.
The Mark of the Beast will be implemented someday, as you and our brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ know full well.
That will be a definite mark.
A man named Ken Peters claims he had a vision many years ago, and it looked like this.
Not sure - I just found that picture and it seemed appropriate.
My feelings exactly.
Twenty five years ago, I thought that if we got the right politicians in office, everything would get better.
I even thought that 10 years ago.
These day, my only hope is in Christ. This world is headed towards a brick wall at 90 mph, and the brakes just failed.

Talk about "identity theft"...!
