When you enter your local Walmart, keep an eye out for the visible part of the latest technology the retail chain has been installing near their doors and throughout the store.
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:
I won’t go there again
Walmart loses Billions to shoplifting and employee theft, so no surprise here….notice that they brought back greeters who record returns coming in, and check receipts going out….just like Sams….
Sorry but I love it! Makes me feel safer! People have to start realizing unfortunately you can’t go anywhere with out being on camera these days! So if we have to be on camera lets get good shots to help identify criminals!
I have nothing to hide so I personally don’t care! I say way to go wal mart! Hope every store and bank and public business goes to these! Better world!
Yet another reason not to visit the Evil Empire
Good luck with that every store you shop in gas security cameras it’s the world we live in. I’m not a criminal so I just smile and wave!
John Harness you should go into communities or countries that believe in sharia law. Spend one day. Tell us if your rights in any way are infringed on. You feel for it. Globalists agenda to have one religion, Islam, and to call it “racist” if we see the huge problems with this in our country. Look what’s happening in Paris, London, Sweden and Germany. I’ll provide some facts about your favorite “peaceful religion”.
