Well you must have been sleeping upon your entry to Thailand it's not new it's been like that for several years it's not old school finger print with ink pad it's a scan of your thumbs and finger tips and facial scan upon entry nothing new
you can choose another destination if you want like thai girls say up to you life is about choices set your minions free iam probably not the only one but I don't have any issue with the entry rule changes if you want to enter the kingdom just comply have a good day
have not missed any point your not happy with the soon to be new entry rules for thailand and you stated with visa some get 15 some get 30 well that's been the case with visas for a hundred years it's always been a case of nothing to hide nothing to fear maybe you need a new tin foil hat it's simple comply or don't enter the kingdom iam sure your birth nation has rules and regulations for entry end of story
