codepope elsewhere comes the latest whizzo wheeze for club entry control. It's more of the same of course, and any venue that insists on anything like this won't get my patronage: I don't trust club owners, I don't trust who they'll sell the data to and I sure as fuck don't trust the gummint or its organs of security and enforcement.
Some of the comments attached to that link make the scariest reading though: it's the "I don't really care; I'm not doing anything wrong" attitude. Not that they don't care - it's their privacy and personal data after all; their business - it's that they don't care that other people care. It's not important to me, therefore it's not important. A charming and truly frightening attitude.
