We have already seen a number of controversial security proposals.
The latest proposal is to make it compulsory for Mumbai cyber cafes to take fingerprints of customers:
If this proposal is implemented, I wouldn' be surprised if less people end up using cyber cafes. What do you think of this proposal by the Mumbai police? Would you care if your fingerprints were taken at cyber cafes?

I understand there's a need to implement security measures, but all this seems very OTT to me. Customers already show photo ID and his/her address is noted down. I'd feel like some kind of criminal if my fingerprints were also taken each time I went to a cyber cafe.Mumbai police recently chalked out a plan to make fingerprint scanners mandatory at internet cafes further increasing its control over cyber cafe’s. The talks have already started between cafe owners and police to discuss nitty-gritty of the proposed plan. This certainly seems to have irked cafe owners as they are already reeling under current stringent rules regarding recording of user information and this would only make things tough for them.
