The irony of masked individuals using facial recognition on people.

    ICE officers are consistently wearing masks, neck gaiters, sunglasses, and baseball caps to mask their identity while detaining people.

    Privacy invasion for thee, not for me.

    Really sounds like this database is based primarily on biometrics obtained during legal immigration and travel.

    I wonder how it will identify those who came through illegal means? Unless that's totally not the point. Hmmm...

    They’re not only identifying immigrants, though. And they may be using biometrics from Real ID, which everyone needs to drive or enter many government buildings or receive many government services.

    I'm salty about the real ID. Fuck that shit. I still don't have one but I'm going to be forced to eventually. Unless I want to drive across the country to see family.

    There's no model that can differentiate between 7 billion people. They all come with a limit. I didn't check the current latest model, because a few years ago when I worked in the field, such models shit themselves beyond 20million people.

    Just to say, using face detection only, like these pieces of shit are doing, will for sure make them detain people who have nothing to do with anything.
