Big Brother just got an upgrade.

Starting December, Amazon’s Ring cameras will scan and recognize faces. Don’t want to be in their database? Too bad — walk past a Ring and your face can be stored, tagged, & analyzed without consent.

One step closer to total surveillance.

    This is what I want. To be able to put on a hat and sunglasses and have it obscure me.

    Oh!!! Or suits like in A Scanner Darkly!!!

    Not for nefarious reasons, I’m pretty boring. It’s the principle of the thing.
