Auf EU-Ebene wird wohl gerade darüber diskutiert, die Fingerabdrücke der europäischen Jugend zu erfassen.

Statewatch: EU states will be free to fingerprint children from day one of their life as soon as it is technologically possible.
Tony Bunyan, Statewatch editor, comments:
“All the discussions by EU governments in the Council about the age at which children should be subject to compulsory fingerprinting are based on the technological possibilities - not on the moral and political questions of whether it is right or desirable. There will be special cases for the taking of fingerprints where a child is “at risk” in order to ensure their safety. But this does not in any way justify submitting all young children to this intrusive process.
The decisions are being made in secret meetings based on secret documents - people and parliaments are to have no say in the decision. Under this proposal EU states will be free to fingerprint children from day one of their life as soon as it is technologically possible”
