    Probably not. But you have the right to opt out, so you should. Don’t make it any more convenient for them to violate your rights than you have to, and if someone proves they’re retaining data illegally, you could join a class action lawsuit.

    If you comply, you might save a few minutes. Is that really worth it?

      Didn’t take any extra time for me to opt out in SFO. It was a quick and he just took an extra 2 seconds to stare at my ID and face.

      I mean the convenience is worth it when the commodity is valueless. They got that when I applied for passport at the federal level and drivers license at the state level. Some folks give facebook a whole bunch and out all their relatives.

        So request that they don’t. Privacy isn’t and end state, it’s a process. Insist at every turn and maybe we’ll get somewhere. Maybe not, but we certainly won’t without trying.
