DHS Announces Program to ILLEGALLY Scan Our Faces--And They're Forcing Us to Pay For It

• http://thefreethoughtproject.com

As TSA agents continue to prove their incompetence in the "War on Terror," the Department of Homeland Security is now allocating $1 billion in taxpayer funding to create a facial recognition program that will illegally scan Americans' faces.

A study conducted by Georgetown Law's Center for Privacy and Technology looked at the biometric scanners that are creating an inventory of the faces of individuals leaving the country at airports across the United States. While they are only at certain major airports right now, the full implementation of these scanners could cost Americans up to $1 billion.

The study noted that while the "9/11 Response and Biometric Exit Account" created by Congress has the funds for the program, "neither Congress nor DHS has ever justified the need for the program."
