Digital id
Freaking dystopian
Discussion
Yeah, it's all part of the net that's being assembled around us. If a phone's IMEI, IMSI etc gets linked to the incoming digital ID and the increasing volume of facial data, the correlation step will be much lower overhead, and so I expect much more pre-correlated data will be gathered.
Sorry, not sure I follow. What does a digital id have to do with walking around the streets?
Capturing faces to match up with digital id profiles… maybe match up with the data collected through biometric scanners at airports (possibly, I’m speculating)…
But they’re definitely not there hoping to catch street crime on camera… they’re collecting personal data… possibly gait too
Maybe I’m too cynical and they need total surveillance to prevent climate change and protect the children
