>Chinese authorities have begun deploying a new surveillance tool: “gait recognition” software that uses people’s body shapes and how they walk to identify them, even when their faces are hidden from cameras.

It's all so tiresome.
And I know this is old, I just got reminded of it today.

The US had this technology in the 90s, it's a problem now only because the Chinese can do it. What's tiresome is the incessant projection of the western media.

I'm so tired of the ever-increasing number of cameras around where I live. It might be for different reasons to anprims but if I had the money I'd go live far away from cities.

Wear a mask. Now because of covid, everyone is expected to. Once the pandemic is done, I'm going to continue wearing masks.

In my country they passed a law against covering your face a couple of months before the pandemic started. Funny how the world works sometimes.

epic pic.

those laws are incredibly dystopian. criminals will obviously wear masks regardless. so the most damaged people are non-criminals.

I'm honestly glad that wearing a mask is becoming the norm. fuck facial recognition. Not that it's relevant in my god forsaken city…

Remember to smash cameras whenever you can.

I hate surveillance tech TBH. Like everything else it's inevitably going to be abused AF

Are there any leftists who don't, really?

I guess "organic" surveillance where the Stasi asks your neighbour to write reports about what you do is okay?

 No.5741

>>5243
My city is at a point where there’s literally nowhere to smoke weed that isn’t in front of a camera. I just gave up and just let started letting these fuckers watch me. If people start disappearing I’m going to have to leave this country.
