Between doorbell cams, dashcams, smart phones, police cams on street corners....every single thing is now going to be recorded and potentially used against you. It stays private until it doesn't. You can only pick your nose in the privacy of your bedroom....unless you have Nanny cams that is
Im sure they know more details and have a better handle on this than us. I have literally zero concern about them rushing him.
Everyone has been talking and getting nervous about facial recognition for 20 years now, but reality was the technology didn't really exist yet. But it does now, a company called Clearview AI has a database with tens of millions of faces and can pick out absolutely anybody from a crowd even with a disguise. They are facing backlash because they scraped everyone's facebook and linked-In pictures but long story short the AI technology can match anyone to a known picture with extreme accuracy.
Was this the company that said 'dw folks!!! we're ONLY working with law enforcement, promise!' as they were actively taking bids from private companies for their tech? Facial recognition is the final nail in this coffin. If you appear on a certain street corner too often that's red listed for example, they'll track you down and start following you and looking at your activities with 0 evidence for it, then when they find nothing they were expecting they'll stick some other BS on you to get you in. We're approaching Minority Report levels here and sheeple are like 'just don't touch my phone or apps! everything else is fair game'. Mic, camera, location, all that is signed off with most apps when they don't need it at all, really they do it for just in case they ever want to sell your info and data in the future, which they will when they see what companies are paying for it. ppl just don't care anymore.
Yeah it definitely makes sense. I would think the insurance companies would want this, too. Less uncertainty in crashes. I remember a guy I went to school with was from Ukraine, and he said that so many people in Ukraine and Russia has the dashcams because of people intentionally getting into accidents and lots of insurance fraud.
Yea, it's a real issue. Not a planned case like your example above, but my dad got into an accident 20 yrs ago. Immediately after, the other (uninsured) driver (who was supposedly deathly injured 2 days later) managed to quickly switch seats inside the car with the (insured) passenger. My father's insurance company believed him, but they settled anyway due to no interest in an extended court fight. You feel helpless, it's just your word against theirs.
Police say the data's anonymous. And can't arrest off of it. Until they demand ALL the data from the source and you have 7 days to lawyer up, paying out of your own pocket of course, or submit to having your life perused and searched.
