They want us distracted while they implement this bullshit.

There are a few places in the US that have banned facial recognition, Amazons ring cameras don't even allow access to their facial recognition feature if you live in those jurisdictions.

Normally I wouldn't be adocating a political solution but we need more local and state level bans ASAP. The control grid is being put into place very quickly, if we don't fight back it is going to get very dark very quickly.

"Meta is weighing whether to add face recognition to its camera-equipped smart glasses, and The New York Times obtained an internal company document that reveals more than just the plan itself.

It reveals how Meta thinks about when to launch it: “during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.”

Read that plainly: Meta wants to release a mass biometric surveillance product while the people most likely to fight it are too distracted to respond."
