This ought to send shivers down everyone's spines:

Mom Blocked from Taking Daughter to Radio City Music Hall Event as Result of Facial Recognition and Private
Company Blacklist


A mom was taking her daughter to a show at Radio City Music Hall when she was pulled aside by security and told she would not be permitted admission. The lady works for a law firm currently in litigation with the venue’s parent company, Madison Square Garden Entertainment. All employees of the law firm are blacklisted.

Comrade citizens, what I find interesting about the story is the use of facial recognition to identify the woman and block her entry. It doesn’t take a deep thinker to see where this type of targeting mechanism can be deployed along ideological lines.

Oh, but wait… It gets better.
