Biometric identification company

A company that does biometric identification (on behalf of LinkedIn) collects 12 kinds of biometrics and consults 6 kinds of government and commercial databases. Then farms out processing of face data to 17 other companies. Those companies are North America, so in practice they can ignore the EU's "data protection" regulations, and the US government can seize any and all of that data. This example shows the concrete meaning of dis-services operating in cloudy servers. Don't trust them! I never do. Of course, I would never ask to be identified on LinkedIn. I do not use LinkedIn at all, because it too is cloudy processing, not to mention the other unjust things it does to its users. But LinkedIn is just one example, and the broad conclusion applies to nearly any business that wants personal data from you.
