re: Mom Kicked Out of Rockettes at Radio City Due to Facial Recognition

Most people tangentially support this rise of privacy invasion. "I have nothing to hide."

Well this is what happens. What next?

Tell me how to stop this problem without expanding governmental power, which would be fascism itself.

Also, regulating businesses is a progressives wet dream, so your example is both fascist AND progressive.

Good job. Good effort.

yea i absolutely despise this kind of tech and in general cameras everywhere etc


but they are a private business and I hate the thought of regulating those and giving governement anymore power much much much more than a private business using this kind of tech.

have to ask yourself...whats more likely to be abused...a private business that must turn a profit using this or the government that can pretty much do what it wants using this to punish political oppenents.

I get her frustration but I also understand where Radio City is coming from. If you work for a business that is in litigation against us, yeah you can frick off. Whether you claim you’re directly involved or not

There is no recourse for privacy violations under the 4th amendment; however, not allowing a paid customer the ability to use the service for some asinine, tangential reason does make them responsible for refunding the ticket cost. You could also make the case for pain and suffering from undue consequences of having to miss the event with your family.

This is a good example of how facial recognition software can be (and will likely be) used in the future. Think Minority Report and the market of cosmetic alterations to dodge those systems.

One thing I will point out with this software. It is extremely unreliable on people with beards. So in China its doing remarkably well for cultural and political reasons. In America courts are going to be loaded with cases of false identification lawsuits against private and public entities.

Four pages and no picture, Y'all are slacking.

Casinos have been using this technology for at least a decade. This doesn't include law enforcement uses, but it was developed within the private sector

so as long as it wasn't developed in a government lab or the military, I guess its alright.

That technology is awesome. I have nothing to hide. Plus, the country has become the wild west with all the guns, mass shootings, terrorists and thieves these days. It's unfortunate but it's needed in todays society.

this mindset is a bigger threat to today's society than anything you listed in your post.

The question is what you want to do about it,

I want to reduce government regulation by having the government regulate the use of Facial Recognition Tech employed by private entities!

This is just a more advanced way of doing the same thing.
For example The first was things like a wanted poster at a US post office.

Nope! Big difference between being wanted for a crime and working for a company handling a lawsuit for someone in which you have no contact with the case. In fact, I'd say it wouldn't even matter if they did work on the case.
