This is being framed as a win for justice but should scare everyone. Widespread, high accuracy facial recognition and cameras are going to be widespread. Privacy as a meaningful thing will soon cease to exist as cameras track your location everywhere. And unlike a phone you wont be able to turn it off or leave it at home.

This is being tied into drivers license and ID photos. You want to have a life at all then there is no escape.

It remains only to live underground for tranquility!

Or get a really good facial prosthesis that you can take on/off under the right circumstances. But AI would probably figure that out pretty fast and you'd be fucked anyway.

Basically, we're fucked.

Yes, were fucked. Gait recognition is coming too.

The ministry of silly walks suddenly becomes creepy mainstream?

Now they'll be able to track the movements of people that take the batteries out of their burner phones :)

Yep, it's all about control.

Similar to the film Minority Report.

I only comment about spelling mistakes when it is in the title of the article. Check your title, You is spelled Youu

Peace Man.

Better take ninja prevention, cover your phone front camera with black tape, that camera is always recording for the nsa...

it's in your pocket 99% of the time anyway. And with this, it won't matter anyhow.
