470 sats \ 4 replies \ @davidw 21 Apr \ on: How governments are using facial recognition to crack down on protesters privacy
It’s not just facial recognition either, it’s device IDs, gait (and walking) analysis, doorbell cams, car cams and more.
Technology is getting better, being enriched with more data points as time passes. Defensive tech is playing catch-up but will hopefully have its day soon. For now the best defence IMHO is voting with your feet, not by attending ineffective protests.

I agree, the most effective protests are the one you do with your feet and your money, I suggest Bitcoin and Latam

Absolutely. Soon these surveillance regimes will realize: "Where did all the wealthy, freedom-minded entrepreneurs go? Guess we gotta dial down on this surveillance thing".

I have to say I agree. I will add that those that don't see all governments as enemies have their heads in the sand.
