Mandatory face-scanning may be implemented across U.S. airports

The transcript discusses a proposed regulation requiring all travelers, including U.S. citizens and green card holders, to undergo facial scans when entering and leaving the U.S. This technology, already used globally in airports, matches a person's image with a database. The regulation aims to prevent fraud and identify criminals and terrorists. Pilot programs have been conducted, but U.S. citizens were previously exempt. In 2017, an executive order was signed to accelerate biometric systems in airports for all travelers.
