Again, it's not the software itself that's fascist, it's what it's being used for that's fascist. Facial recognition for determining citizenship could absolutely be used for non-fascist purposes, like simplifying border crossings to not require documentation (i.e. completely opt-in). Likewise, surveillance systems can also not be used until there's an actual warrant (i.e. no passive recording), which can help in catching dangerous criminals.

The technology itself isn't fascist, it's how it's applied that's fascist. The mass data collection is fascist, the tools used to collect that data isn't fascist in the same way that guns and tanks aren't fascist, but they can certainly be used by fascists.
