Students Horrified When Error Message Appears on Vending Machine, Revealing Something Dark (Facial Recognition)
The college students discovered that the facial recognition software was part of the vending machine's "demographic profiling" feature.
Oh this is just too messed up..now vending machines have cameras in them?
You're viewing a single thread.
I’ve seen vending machines with cameras 10 years ago at least. Allegedly to prevent people from shaking and pivoting them so that the goods drop. Which people did. And started doing less once the cameras appeared. However, at that time, the message that “you are being recorded” was printed quite clearly on the front of the vending machine. Not mentioning that seems unlawful to me.
It might seem unlawful, but unfortunately it isn't. The government in the pocket of the corporations, and they want face tracking without your knowledge or consent. The 3 letter agencies certainly don't mind having that either.
