This cat's been out of the bag a long time.
This issue isn’t about the cat being out of the bag, it’s about wicked cat herders illegally rounding up all the cats and training them to kill your dog, rape your loved ones, take away your guns, and any other freedom you care about. Best to just say no to wicked cat herders…
This entire issue arose because Clearview AI, the wicked cat herder, aggregated stolen data that none of us agreed to give them and trained it to do wicked things. LinkedIn went so far as to sue Clearview AI over the issue of the stolen facial images but they unfortunately lost the case because we don’t have proper regulations in place to deal with our new digital society. I’m not a big government guy but in this regard we need regulation to protect our freedom.
We should be able to go to church and fellowship with our friends on social media without having all of our data stored forever. Many of the privacy issues are mitigated if we can limit data storage and even more importantly, limit or stop data aggregation through regulation.
This is why we have guns.
Aggregated data used by this app and many others puts all of our freedoms at risk. Opponents will use aggregated data to know you have guns and what kind. Armed with aggregated data and geofencing, they will be able to see who has guns and where you live in proximity to schools and places of worship. When political winds shift, they will try to pass legislation that will prevent you from bearing the arms of your choice based on your proximity to gun safe zones.
If you’re concerned at all about your second amendment rights, then you should be at war against aggregated data because it is the tech vehicle that will cause the loss of your individual rights and freedoms…
Casinos have used facial recognition for years to identify cheats and people who can legally beat their system.
It’s one thing to agree to surveillance when you enter someone’s business, work on a company device or location, or visit a government facility. It’s a giant leap to allow anyone on the street to have the ability to instantly identify you or your loved ones and know
everything about you. This capability turns everyone into an instant target and puts all of our freedoms at risk.
I worry more about the national debt levels and the money that I have becoming worthless due to inflation!
Me too but I also know the dangers of allowing anyone on the street to immediately know how much money you have as it makes you and yours an instant target.
