Disney World has mandated fingerprint scans for guests at all of its Florida theme parks, raising the collective eyebrow of privacy watch dogs.
Disney previously required scans only for season pass holders, but now everyone entering the parks must insert their index and middle fingers at the front gates. We’re sure these lines will make those at Tower of Terror look speedy by comparison.
Mouse House officials say they’re using the scans to ensure everyone is using a legitimate ticket but, frankly, that doesn’t make much sense. Previously you had to insert your ticket into a scanner at the gate, which we presume would spit out counterfeit tickets. How would a fingerprint detect a fake ticket?
