I feel like this is going to get non-combatants identified and ruin normal people's lives.
Wait until you hear about the 200 Flock cameras you drove past on the way to work this morning which already ID'd you and reported your movements to all of the 3-letter agencies regardless of whether you were suspected of anything.
I have a bicycle.
Well, and this sounds stupid, I don't expect to be doxxed by those agencies yet. If I got put onto an ICE agent list, then I could be fucked. I support fighting against ICE and identifying their genocidal employees, but we should be sure of who we're punishing.
They are already using this or worse. Theil's Palintir is already doing tons of nasty data analytics. Add in Lucky Palmer's drone/surveillance company Anduril, and you have the data input and attack payloads ready to go, all from Chud industries.
Don't forget about all the info on every American the doge kids stole. They'll be using that too.
They escalated this shit in 2025 no doubt.
Yes, this just levels the playing field so i think there is little to no downside.
Yeah this is hella sketchy. It's MAYBE one step above saying "chat gpt, show me what this agents face looks like" and then using that to try and find a match.
Are you talking about ICE? Yes, they have attacked only non-combatants and ruined many "normal people's" (wtf) lives.
No, he's talking about you being (mis)identified as an ICE agent. Because this tech sucks.
No, I'm talking about normal non-ICE agents being identified as ICE agents and being treated as such. Shitty ai shouldn't be used to decide whether or not we should dox people. We need to be precise in our vengeance.
