Bank of Ireland: Biometric GDPR Breach? | EP 64

The opening of a Bank of Ireland account has sparked controversy after a customer, Mags Connolly, claims she was required to undergo close-up facial scanning without clear consent. Cybersecurity expert Colin Larkin argues this may raise serious GDPR concerns. Bank of Ireland maintains that proper procedures were followed. All of which is fuelling a wider debate about privacy, biometrics, and how personal data is handled in modern banking.
