TSA’s push for biometric technology and digital IDs with Big Tech aims to streamline airport security, but raises concerns over passenger privacy and government surveillance.

The US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is continuing collaboration with Big Tech concerning the use of biometric surveillance technology, but also the development of digital IDs for passengers.

On its site, the TSA revealed that its officials traveled to California recently where they met with representatives of Apple and Google to talk about continuing work on implementing digital ID on people’s phones.
