It will be interesting to see if the houses use these scans to update their criminal databases, without having actually encountered the person. I think it is fine if they do, we will see if smugglers can adapt to actually having to be sneaky.
On that note too, I wonder if the admins will pass FR5 based solely on this information. Contrary to the right says, it seems you don't need to directly interact with a person before you can have them FR5'd. Meaning these scans could be used in a similar fashion.
All in all, smugglers and other not so legal types will need to adapt. I say cheers. Great feature for the police which makes 100% sense.
