You are playing fast and loose with your assumptions.
“They” do not have a database of our faces. More specifically, states do, at the DMV, and the US state department does, for passports. Also, private companies do, harvesting publicly available photos from Facebook, etc.
A few years ago this was no big deal, and lots of people tagged pictures of themselves, but now that facial recognition algorithms are here, we have to start thinking about how to mitigate the privacy concerns.
There is a big privacy distinction between looking at someone’s face, and taking a picture of it.
Jfc you literally claim they do t have a db of your face and then list a bunch of government entities rhat have… A db of your face. Jfc.
Feel free to go to a park and take all the photos of peoples faces you want. Its not illegal.
You of course can continue to bury your head in the sand on this it wont change reality. The terms are what they are and no amount of crying by you will change this.
And some of us took these issues seriously ages ago and there are not photos of us on social media linked to our (non-existent) social media accounts.
If you wanted to take it seriously the time was a 2 decades ago.
The key factor here is that the TSA is a government agency, they are not a private entity. None of the laws apply to them w/ respect to biometrics.
Nor do they apply to private spaces you will fully enter. Trust me the lawyers took care of this in terms and conditions.
Get a load of this guy who doesn’t understand the separation between state, local, and federal government agencies.
To be fair those lines (in the US at least) are blurring more and more with all the federal overreach currently going on, and cowards in state and local government capitulating, but that’s even more of a reason to not roll over and make it as easy as possible for the Feds to keep a live database of our identities and feed the machine that is the security state.
Jfc dude get a clue. Security cameras are not illegal have never been for private or public spaces. And guess what? They record and store your face. Check any grocery store 7/11, etc, entrance they fucking tell you they’re recording and monitoring you via a security camera system. dropping facial rec software into the mix doesnt change this. You clowns need to stop acting like you know wtf you’re talking about.

I reject your terms and definitions.
