It’s not enough that I already have to give them my shoe size and my exact hair count; now I have to sign paperwork every single week just to prove I'm not an American taxpayer, as if the laws of the USA somehow don't apply to me instead of local regulations.
The only thing they haven't asked for yet is a DNA sample. Honestly, I'd probably volunteer it if they wanted to get their hands on it—it's standard procedure for bankers, after all... my personal little banker. And if the US government actually demanded that, I wouldn't even doubt they'd take it. It's not out of the question soon, since this state is turning into absolute Texas.
So, let's review the lesson: collecting data for non-business purposes without consent is, if I recall correctly, according to GDPR, TOTALLY ILLEGAL!!!!
Look, we aren't talking about handing your fingerprint over to the bank itself, but rather using the fingerprint authentication you already have on your phone to log into the app (if you actually want to, obviously).
