Big Brother just got an upgrade.

Starting December, Amazon’s Ring cameras will scan and recognize faces. Don’t want to be in their database? Too bad — walk past a Ring and your face can be stored, tagged, & analyzed without consent.

One step closer to total surveillance.

What. You gonna make em? Once the data's on their servers, they'll do what they want.

Unless you physically disallow and destroy their hardware that's invaded your continent.
