And why the hell the government will keep the fingerprints? So that once in 10 years I save 1h. The benefit is minor compared to bad things that can be done with a fingerprints DB (mass surveillance..)
I'm not complaining they don't store the fingerprints. I'm complaining they broke a perfectly good system pretending it improves security by getting fingerprints, while it does nothing. The fact they collect the fingerprints to delete them when you collect the document (or 6 weeks past your collection date if you don't show up). demonstrates how bullshit this "rule" is.
Our (Polish - and other EU states as I understand it) government is not allowed to store everyone's fingerprints unless they are a criminal. I as well as other people here have pretty strong feelings against it.
