STRESZCZENIE
The aim of the article is to present the development of biometric technology as
a consequence of 9/11 terrorist attacks in the USA and issuing the PATRIOT ACT in
2001. Nowadays biometric technology is popular not only in the public security area (e.g.
criminal data bases, face recognition surveillance systems) but is also used in everyday life
(e.g. smartphones with touch ID/face recognition). The article shows both sides of biometric
devices utilization: advantages and potential negative consequences for individuals.
