Oh, yeah, false positives all over the place. If you get ensnared by this little scheme, make the best of it. Keep track of everything that happens during your detainment, down to the slightest inconvenience, because you are going to blow that up when you get your case into a courtroom.

If there are already going to be false positives for a country like China, it's going to be much higher in America, where we have a population segment that doesn't really exist in China, which has a notorious poor accuracy for facial rec. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago Make these Sociopathic Oligarchs fund your (hopefully early) retirement.
