It works the same for non-US-citizens entering the USA and has been for a very long time. Fingerprints, photos, all that. Back in the day always with a very hostile interview with a border guard. I think something must have happened to make them clean up their act, maybe tourist numbers dropped too far, because the last few times I visited the US the hostility had been turned right down and the mood was more neutral and professional.
I don't like all this biometric stuff; throughout my life it was always the only people who got fingerprinted were criminals in police stations. I guess it's just today's unfortunate reaity. Good luck finding a country which doesn't do all that shit when you want to enter.

Fingerprint and photos are necessary evil. Collecting DNA is not. Nor is inserting a chip or tag
Yes I had fingerprints and retina scans done entering the US going back years
