• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

At least in the United States each baby has all of their prints taken, fingers toes. Just by looking into our phone or using Facebook they have a scan of your face. All it takes is one evil dude to force use fingerprint scans or face scans to buy or sell anything.

But good news
These scans are not reliable. They depend highly on lighting, how clean your fingers are. If you also have anxiety over this, I recommend this video.

Actually. Thinking about this more. Since the phones only keep a string of numbers and not the print itself, as you age the skin on your fingertips becomes less elastic and the ridges get thicker and your prints themselves get bigger. So the string isn't going to be close enough to identify it as you.
