Majority Report

Reading mX about Dallas Airport introducing iris and fingerprint scanning for express checkin. The future is here and it looks like Minority Report. Scary.

And I'm not the only one. From http://io9.com/5920302/minority-report-really-did-predict-the-future

But Minority Report isn't just notable for predicting future technology. What is most striking is the way this film shows how people and governments will use the technology in the future. Spielberg presents a chillingly casual dystopian world where eye-scanners and tracking are prevalent — not only for surveillance, but for advertising purposes — the police can stop your car remotely, and arrest you for literally committing no crime.

In the decade since that time, we've seen most of the major advances that Minority Report posits used in exactly as predicted: video cameras capture crimes in progress and aid investigations, cars with OnStar equipped have stopped cars and criminals in their tracks, robotic drones have been used at home and abroad to watch criminal suspects and terrorists, all the while computer systems have been tasked with crunching statistical numbers to best position police cars to help prevent crimes from happening. The 2054 in Minority Report has come a full 40 years early, and we're just getting started.
