Paging: George Orwell. Mr. Orwell, you there?
High-tech facial recognition cameras are installed eye level near the entry-ways of their new store fronts, but it’s the software behind these anonymous plastic half-globes that is raising concerns (see the video on the following page). Understand, that it isn’t about having anything to hide, these cameras set new a precedent for both personal and business use. These cameras are able to cross-reference your image with online social media networks to match a name with the face, they can learn a great deal more and may be able to track lot of data points. How much the system can record and track is unknown, but in the video on the next page you can see that it not only tracks faces, but can categorize objects and motion:

OH HELL NO !!!!!
I cant believe people are so dumb its dissapointing
People throw racist at everything. Muslims are not a race they are your friends who bomb you when they feel like it.
Don’t you find it interesting that if a crime takes place they still give law enforcement the shitty cc video and make them search instead of giving them a name?
