Re: Barcodes and security gates - WTF?!

What, in regards to coming and going?

This is an apartment complex and the landlord doesn't want people that don't belong there at the location. Or look at this way, having the bar code gives you a right of passage to the complex. I really don't see how that intrudes on your privacy.

It is no different if you lived in a residential neighborhood. Your neighbors will always notice your car entering and leaving your driveway. If it is you, no big deal. If it is someone suspicious, there would be a cause of some kind of concern but you have been watched.

Personally, I would thank the apartment complex for trying to make their customers/guest as safe as possible trying to reduce crime there.

I'm not really interested in arguing for my views on privacy in this thread. The OP is free to disagree or agree with my original statement. I don't really care.
