NFL to Roll Out Facial Authentication Software to All Stadiums, League-Wide - Slashdot
Ai training on human interaction and reaction. Training on our faces. Training them to do jobs that are not skilled.
Do you guys see what they are doing? Or do you still live in denial and ignorance?
Ahh, /., the first site I read that showed domains next to links because of goatse. Here's a photo I took on the freeway / highway / wtf a lot of years ago.
I ran into facial recognition at the airport recently an opted out, but what are the likely and worst case consequences of allowing yourself to be profiled?
I've heard of false arrests because of it, but it seems like those issues while be resolved with time.
Well "with time" is not something that can be afforded for many of us. Your life could be ruined before that point.
Well you're giving governments and companies personally identifiable data willingly of yourself. More problematic is the companies part. This will be sold and given to other parties. Eventually the elite will have a database of everyone's face. You'll walk the streets and cameras will know who you are and where you are at all times. Not a joke, check out avigilon cameras.
Do they not already have access to the beginnings of this through driver's license photos?
I'd also be shocked if there aren't companies offering identification services based on scraping publicly uploaded pictures off social media (mainly facebook due to connection to real identity).
Like, I hate this, but I'm not sure there's a reasonable counter to it.
While not connecting to your personal identity, you can be tracked through multiple camera feeds of a crowd through gait analysis already. Tie that into getting your identity by paying with a card at one of the in-stadium vendors and boom. Alternatively, they know when you entered by scanning your ticket, what entrance it was scanned at, and the name associated with the ticket. So now you can say "Persons 345-367 entered from west entrance when John Snow's ticket was scanned, so he's one of them. Let's cross reference it with demographics data available on him from a third party."
I'm just not sure there's a safe, private way to attend big sports games as it is without putting in a ton of effort.
You get murdered by police while sleeping in your bed because their facial recognition database misidentified you as the suspect
Those agencies get hacked and then the attacker uses your facial profile to authenticate as you
It's run by private companies, they'll sell your location, face, habits, what you do and like in real life in addition to your online profile. Then they can do whatever they want. Sell you things, manipulate what you think
Boycott it is
Doesn't change how the league fleeces the public with stadium deals though
Good luck with that. Sports are so dumb and the fans are dumber. You need to by "official" merch and pay for "official" services.
They milk the dumb
You can always watch the games at home. It also significantly reduces the risks of COVID and injuries during fan fights.
