MODERATORS
i wonder how much longer i'll be able to move about without face detection being able to spot me because my complexion is too dark.
Not for much longer. Everything is going to be based on facial recognition soon. The only way to fix it is to ban the thing altogether.
It's already banned in EU in public spaces.
BUT
I've read those news a while ago so I don't remember if there were any shady exceptions or don't know if there were any changes made to it with time.
Which is honestly terrible. I know it's the "it helps reducing crime by 0.1%" situation but it's just not a great decision for healthcare. Public places are the only places where you do need a mask if you have a serious infection (COVID or not).
I meant the facial recognition thing. Or am I misunderstanding your response?
I thought you were talking about masks because that was the last thing I was talking about in this thread.
The fact that FR is banned there is pretty surprising to me considering the direction the EU is going now.
Oh well, I'm just checking this stuff again and this act ended up having big exceptions. Everything's still shit.
Now that's more like the good old EU.
