Doesn't get more transparent than actually watching the whole process. It's done with the parents watching right over the shoulders of us and their children... I don't know how to make it any more clear than that.

Like i said, if it bothers you that much then dont participate in the program. If you want to see how it works for yourself though, just find one and watch.

There is no screens dude. No tricky computer tricks. No grand scheme.
If you can't be convinced of it here (which i understand... it's ATS and I'm an evil doer or something) then go see one. I'm not sure what else in terms of transperency you could want.... And i don't think theres a need for me to explain it any more. I'm starting to hear the sounds of a dead horse being beaten.

As i said before, there is no way to verify this.
It is a performed by a secret organisation and i believe the handeling of medical and personal idetification information should be handeled by a more transparent organisation.
Looking at a computer screen does not give me any real information about the structure of how this is organised.

It insults my intelligence to think that I would allow myself to witness news about these events and not say something about it.
It insults my judgement and gut-instinct that the whole scenerio is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Do the parents take the swab home?
Was that swab swabbed on another swab?
You claim to be authorized to defend the Masons yet, a concerned citizen/parent is asking questions and you scoff him off like he is the bad guy.
One mason says it is done with paper, another says it is a computerized screen lol
it is all fishy

Yep. You said it. If the information provided isn't enough, and your un willing to investigate it in person... There is nothing more that i can say that will covince you other wise. Best of luck.
I personally haven't seen the computers used at these things, but if they are like most, they'll have one or two things on them, either they are a purpose built machine, in which either they'll have no obvious connectors and no way to check them, or you'll have a normal computer with the spread sheet type program that accepts the information.

What would be a valid argument?

In that case, you can check the changes in increase of file size to see if any of the information is kept.
