BTW, Retina Scan would be next and/or hand blood vessels bio-metrics. Retina Scan is easier/cheaper/portable and has been tested in Iraq.

Assuming this move toward ubiquitous biometric data collection is inevitable (and I wish it were not, but such is life as we know it), for me the best one is the retina scan.

In my nearly 50+ years on this planet, I've never ONCE had an eye doctor be able to do one of those computerized eye-test thingies successfully on my eyes. My eyes are extremely light sensitive, and I tear up instantly even getting close to the machine. (They're a bit moist now, just thinking about it - yeah, I'm a real wuss.) Unless the retina scan can be done sans-illumination, I'll remain a perpetual ghost in the world of retina-scan biometrics while y'all are tracked constantly.
