As a New Yorker who is a minority and has been targeted by people because of my race and gender expression, I'm not against this. I don't like traveling in fear and running for my life. I have had to. And where is safe place? Nowhere. Places close early now in the city that doesn't sleep. You have to hope the next train is rolling in on time to just run.
I also don't like it when companies misdeliver packages or even worse, someone comes by to steal it, taking advantage of response time. These are always important packages too that contain life-saving medications for me and my family. I'm immunocompromised and not a rich man and the same can be said about the people I help.
We can blame the technology all we want but we must remember we created it, bought it, sold it, etc. Like the video addressed briefly, what I am concerned about is the lives behind peaceful protests that are organized properly by activists who are trying to create unity between various intersecting communities of people and allies like the pioneers had in our history books. A famous congresswoman recently stated that -Pressure helps us get better- and I believe that to be true. What we truly fear has not changed--each other and fear itself. So in such frightened hands, this technology will help aid in the suppression of human expression due to human bias, just as the video showed. And this will lead to any change being halted and a perpetuation of negative emotions and even acts that divide us further.
With such technology, we should be more responsible with it and remember that we need people to act responsibly and most importantly, with compassion. You may never understand the person holding a sign at a protest, but it is a life and life is worth protecting and let's start with our neighbors, hm?
Great content and thought provoking for those who may not be aware of these things. I only hope there is a follow-up with more on the subject.
Edited due to typos. Bah!

This reminded of the show -Person of Interest-, if anyone hasn't seen it, it's about a software engineer who works with an ex Cia guy to save people's lives who will be involved in a violent crime. This is done by this engineer who came up with a -secret system, a machine that spies on you every hour of every day- aka surveillance AI. It sends them the social security numbers (identities) of the regular people who are gonna be involved in crimes (prior) to the crime. Then it's their job to decide who's who and what's what. Watch it, it's a nice story, once you start you'll never stop binging it

We're living in a cyberpunk dystopian world. Practices like this should be illegal. The government and companies shouldn't be allowed to spy on people and learn everything about them, its literally a form of stalking and it's creepy just like it would be if it was someone you know who had all these details about you. It's messed up that we're at the point where society just accepts mass surveillance

Why does all enforcement have to be so heavy handed anyway? I loved the auto obfuscation for operators. We need more visibility into this so that it doesn't end up enforced for fear and protocols are in place to make sure the human element is taken into account and trust that there's a feedback loop to improve the system for everyone in providing meaningful services not just stalkerish ones.

There is another side to this. Alibi if for some reason you ever get implicated in a crime and dont have a way to prove your alibi there is this option. I am not saying this is a good thing at all and I wish we could just go back to the 80s and 90s but its not all doom and gloom.

Crime in NYC and other cities is outrageous. So if facial recognition can help catch criminals, I'm all for it. I personally don't care if the cops have an image of my face in their database. They can watch me go to the coffee shop or sandwich shop to their hearts' content.

Now very pleased that I have no social media, no passport or driving licence. Very pleased indeed.
I want to know if a police vehicle in America or Australia stops beside you and calls you over, are they taking and storing your image in the process?
