Iris Scanners Create the Most Secure City in the World. Welcome, Big Brother
22nd August 2010
Biometrics R&D firm Global Rainmakers Inc. (GRI) announced today that it is rolling out its iris scanning technology to create what it calls “the most secure city in the world.” In a partnership with Leon — one of the largest cities in Mexico, with a population of more than a million — GRI will fill the city with eye-scanners. That will help law enforcement revolutionize the way we live — not to mention marketers.
Considering the crime problems in Mexico these days, they could probably use it.

In a movie some years ago, the bad guys kill a scientist, rip out his eyeball, and then use it to open a door with a retina scanner.
Security devices slow people down. They do not stop them.
A lesson from this side of the Twilight Zone.
