So let me get this straight:

- Currently travelers to the US need to give biometric data each time they enter

- New DB connection between EU and US for this purpose

- People will _still_ need to give biometric data each time they enter in order to validate that they carry valid information

Further more, they claim that _the US_ will only request data from travelers. But, my country doesn't know if I travel and where. So the supposed privacy guarantees are empty claims. It's not 2012 anymore. Everyone knows better, as soon as they get access to that DB, they will start working on scraping all data from it.

There is 0 upsides to this.
