False. This lie was spouted by Mr. NN. There are huge number of false positives in any 1 to many search. These are whittled down by additional parameters until you come to a small number which can be verified manually. There are huge numbers of misses. You will never know about them. In the case of auth, failure to auth - a false negative - means that you are not in the db. So you can obtain a new id. Biometrics is a statistical probability with error rates in excess of .0025% in lab conditions. In reality it is more like 10% in urban middle class situations with regular re-registration and 50% without re registraion over period of 2 years. No study of longer periods. No study of non ideal conditions. No study of large populations. > Even if > they give false names, they will have to stick to it for the rest of > their official lives. READ, READ, READ.
