I can't say that iris scanning would be ideal. People's irises can change over time, depending on their health level. Ask an Iridologist/Naturopath! You'd be better using fingerprints than irises if you wanted to keep track of someone IMO. Plus, scanning them too regularly could create problems with the retina etc. But hey, I guess people who think scanning their eyes regularly is a good idea don't plan on living to 100, let alone 70!

For the record, I always keep my computer's microphone, speakers and camera OFF, unless I'm having an online meeting. Then I turn them all off again after the meeting! And no, I do not have an iPhone with 'Siri' or whoever it is now listening in on me! Guess I don't trust these tech companies, eh?! :-D
