In about 2008 I was flying to New Zealand via LAX for a refuelling stop. We did not go through passport control but the US decided to take our finger prints and retinal scans. I am still furious.

Just out of curiosity, did you have the option to say no and be sent back to your departure airport?

Nothing was mentioned and I didn’t know what to do. As I understood it we effectively hadn’t landed on US soil so I don’t know what right they had to take that information.
Unsurprisingly I’ve avoided all travel to the US since, even before the current level of insanity.
