Who will put an end to the never-ending homeland blindness?

One of the main logical paradoxes, governments needed to address with the current biometrics is, traceable biometrics are clonable...all our data – fingerprints, body parts, personal characteristics and imaging can be exploited by businesses or criminals. How do you replace your finger if a hacker figures out how to duplicate it?

Now it will become ‘fashionable’ to wear “Biometrics’ Gloves” (other person’s biometric disguises) mimicking the presence of innocent biometric genuine owners’…

Sounds Terrifying?

There is a much more important issue rather than why ‘Biometrics collections' present a serious threat to privacy rights. What is the effect of ‘fake biometric' on our liberty and the criminal justice system? More importantly, what is more harmful, a successful attack or ‘Faked Biometrics'? An immediate answer may be that a successful attack is more harmful. It seems logical. However, further analysis reveals that in fact ‘Faked Biometrics' pose a greater threat to innocents. The reason lies in the fact that law system can evaluate damages resulting from malicious activities and can quantify them. However, damages that occur from a wide spread ‘Faked Presence' on the crime scene created by a third-parties putting end to these fundamental evidence legality, is much more difficult to predict and protect against.

Let's look at an example. In most legal systems, if the facts in a case are ambiguous, the legal system would tend towards letting a suspect go, letting a guilty person walk free rather than finding an innocent person guilty. With (faked) biometrics evidence in scene of the crime as long as biometrics’ evidence will stay acceptable (??!!) it could never happen... For lawmakers, it has long been clear that such a ‘Faked Evidence' (finding an innocent person guilty), bears a higher price on society and liberty than enduring a legal attack.
