You have to give us your fingerprint

"You have no choice, the company is switching over."
Imagine being forced to give your biometric fingerprint away to third party. Now imagine your employer mandating this and you having no choice in the matter? Well imagine no more.
Meet the Kronos Biometric fingerprint time clock. Can you guarantee that my biometrics are safe. Where is the security answer please?
I am so opposed to this and I can't do a thing about it. Being forced does not constitute consent.
For the record I object again.
Which finger?
Point in fact Kronos settled a lawsuit in 2022 stemming from their data breach in 2021.
Millions of workers are being forced to hand over their fingerprints. There is no consent. You are required to abide by company rules and companies are switching over to fingerprint readers because Kronos is switching over to biometric time clocks.
Period. You have no choice. Once again I am so against this.
Fairly soon ransomware groups may be able to get their hands on your fingerprints.
I cannot state this point any clearer, you have NO choice except to clock in with your finger.
I am strongly opposed to the forceful relinquishment of and collection of biometric data
Stay safe.
