As palm-recognition technology gains traction with Amazon and other companies, ethical concerns surrounding it's use are surfacing and raises questions about potential misuse and the need for robust safeguards.

Brian Green, director of technology ethics highlights the dual nature of data as both an asset and a liability: "Data is not only an asset, but also a liability for those holding it."

“Combining biometric data with big data, AI, DNA, surveillance cameras, and geolocation data could lead to advanced profiling of individuals, raising further ethical concerns,” he adds.
