So where are all the dorks always talking about the CCP and social credit score now? Britian and America are gonna do the same if not already done
Both things can be bad.
Hi its me, and I condemn it here too and will be taking direct action where possible.
5 Eyes has been simping for China's Golden Shield for as long as China has had it. Now Curtis Yarven and his circle of authoritarian tech bro freaks and 5 corpos in a trench coat are running America. Then the UK gets Apple to remove ADP and now, a nation that already has a hard-on for security cameras decides to expand biometric surveillance in quick succession. Hmm... interesting.
What is this comment trying to say? Do you think the people who are critical of surveillance in China are OK with it in their cities? You're gloating to a strawman
Weird, I just had a bunch of mls tell me just the other day that a comment I made was strawmanning a hypothetical tankie telling me I'm wrong.
And here we see yet another ml strawmanning.
Super Weird.
All I see is a bunch of people saying this is dystopia nightmare shit, and so far the only person I've seen do anything other than call it what it is is the ml comparing this to China.
Surveillance states are bad anywhere, you won't get many people arguing that city wide government facial recognition is a good thing.
You're small minded tribalism is why your opinion doesn't matter and you'll add very little value to the planet. Be they maga, Israeli, Palestinan, Sudanese, American. I want justice and peace for all. You're fighting about what instance peoples are. We are not the same...have you considered going outside and talking to humans outside? No instances there lmfao
Most cities in the US have been running clearview ai facial recognition city wide for several years now.
