    1. DNA and fingerprints for biometric records
    2. I would be willing to bet the budget of the program that the number of people willing to go through that would not even be a rounding error.

      Ok, so get chemo, a bone marrow transplant and burn off my fingerprints while in Russia. No downsides!

        Okay, this is only barely related to what you’re suggesting, but I always found it amusing. I went through a “detective” phase as a kid and got a bit obsessed.

        I read an account of a man who thought he had that kind of thing figured out. He used rubber bands to cut off the blood supply to his fingertips, then used a razor to repeatedly scrape off the skin in order to eliminate his fingerprints before launching his criminal career.

        He was caught and identified because the scar patterns on his fingertips were unique fingerprints.
