    I bet this is related to Palantir facial recognition. Seems like identifying people and feeding it into some database is very important lately.

      Always has been. You’ve been fingerprinted on the web for 10 years minimum. You know those secret aliases you had? Yeah they always knew they were you.

        Stop. I’m not fucking playing this stupid game. I’m well aware of data brokers and selling our data. This is clearly different uploading pictures of yourself with id as a requirement to access websites.

            That’s how they want to verify underage kids. You need to upload photo proof of your ID. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that agencies like ICE are also taking everyone’s pictures to upload to Palantir database.
