Absolutely not. That is legitimately beyond insane. Fingerprints are used for investigating crimes. Giving them the access to this information before hand puts you as being investigated everytime they find a fingerprint at a crime scene. | ||

They haven’t seen those movies. Imagine someone wanting to frame someone for a crime and using their publicly available fingerprint data to manufacture gloves that reproduce that fingerprint. | ||

Also, the science behind fingerprints is not particularly solid. Fingerprint experts can sometimes disagree on whether a particular print matches or not and even then, it hasn't been proven that fingerprints are unique - it's just likely to be so. | ||
