The National Football League is using biometric data for security employees, and the Las Vegas Police Department isn't fond of the new measures.
The National Football League's new security measures are getting brushback from the police department of one of its biggest cities. The Las Vegas Police Department is threatening to boycott working Raiders games if the NFL's new measures stick. 'We've had a big concern over something the NFL is trying to push out…They've gone a step far further,' Las Vegas Police protective association president Steve Grammas, via TMZ Sports.
Initially, Gammas said the NFL had officers 'sign off on an agreement that you would absolve them of all liability should anything happen to you in the course and scope of a game,' but they 'removed' that policy. However, the NFL will be taking security officer's 'biometric data — your face — and they’re going to use that however they need to.
We don't know who all those people are, but I'm sure if you're like me, you don't want to have biometric data in the hands of people that you don't know. These could be in the hands of people that are anti-cop that support a different agenda than what law and order supports. And I don't think I want my biometric data in the hands of folks just because I wanted to work an overtime game or be down on the field during a football game.
