[–] switcheroo@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (2 children) That is horrid. I would never leave my house without a mask. Fuck that. Or maybe invest in some of those anti surveillance full face masks. They ain't doing this for YOUR benefit or protection. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] nosuchanon@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago* Wait till you read about gait recognition. Add that to data streams consolidated by Palantir tracking your gps via cell phone, purchase tracking, and they don’t really need to see your face. They can still track you by your cars registration plates with enough accuracy. They will have a 90% tracking rate regardless of your face being behind a mask. permalink fedilink source parent [–] angrystego@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago Avoiding surveillance will not be allowed, mark my words. permalink fedilink source parent
