Fellow Saiditors, there is a war being waged against normal people, on top of the longstanding systemic usurpation by the usurpers. Q: What are you doing about it? by EddieC in WritingsOnTheWall

Hunkering and surviving it, God willing. The war on normal was lost awhile ago. Hope to survive the fall out

"will not record audio or use facial recognition"

Why not? Why pretend anyone in the corporate or government sector gives any fucks about individual privacy then fears for votes or profit? If you are deploying a fucking surveillance robot at a subway station why are you limiting it's functionally? It's a fucking spy bot in the subway, I think your statement on privacy is being rolled out pretty blatantly.

So fuck it, record audio, recognize faces. Jihadists planning their next 9/11 in front of the rolling pyramid that'd good for America. I know I'll feel safer if facial recognition gets another wanted man off the streets. Maybe they can do the felony arrest right there on the train so everyone can applaud the storm troopers when they descend. Assault rifles pointed in my face be damned that's the government keeping us safe.

Besides, you know all the shit that they so specifically tell us won't be used, just means it's there ready to be. Behind an IAP upgrade and doubt that unlock will make headlines quite the same.
