Vape companies explore biometrics for age verification
Wired·
Vape manufacturers are considering integrating biometric age-verification technology into cartridges to potentially circumvent flavor bans. The hope is that by proving user age directly through the device, flavored vapes could return to the market. However, this technological approach is unlikely to address the fundamental issues surrounding vaping, such as public health concerns and addiction. The effectiveness and privacy implications of such biometric systems also remain significant questions that need thorough consideration.
