This is an #EFF project, and it is good so far as it goes. It is meant to let one know what agencies are allowed to use facial recognition technology on the information that government agencies collect.
But even if your state's DMV isn't allowed to use facial recognition on your identification documents, various police agencies also have access to that information. Likewise, your kids' schools and colleges / universities, even state-run institutions, take photos and may have wide discretion with little or no oversight on how they get used.
And of course, this completely ignores the ways that non-public organizations and businesses may use facial recognition on data in their possession. -

If you’re a user of #gnusocial.no, you have about two weeks to grab your data and find a new #Fediverse home.

In effect, this bill could kill the economy's tech sector. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Admitted incompetence is not much of a confidence-builder. Maybe their older privacy snd security issues were also of the "we do not know what we are doing" type.

Don't forget that Boomers [people born from 1946 to 1964] in general have a life-long history of trying to improve the world. If anyone is trying to vote to make the world better, you know it's got to be them.
Again, it doesn't mean that their ideas of "better" are the same as yours.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
