Big Brother just got an upgrade.

Starting December, Amazon’s Ring cameras will scan and recognize faces. Don’t want to be in their database? Too bad — walk past a Ring and your face can be stored, tagged, & analyzed without consent.

One step closer to total surveillance.

      Sorry to hear you feel that way. It can be tough to be confronted with something you’ve always felt was true but turns out to be false.

                That’s not what ad hominem means. And as I said, I don’t think this is protected by the first amendment. You’re the one who got rude first.

                  You’re way too sensitive if you think I was rude first.

                  Look it up and feel embarrassed for being an asshole. Or don’t and remain ignorant. Either way, shut up so I don’t have to block you. People who drown in their own ignorance in the information age with web search a click away are so pathetic.
