“The facial recognition angle is disturbing...”
It started with red light cameras to improve “public safety” and then going to court with no opportunity to confront one’s (faceless) accusers. This is not science fiction.
True, but in this case there’s no court process or legal proceeding of any kind. It’s just a business owner who doesn’t want certain customers in his properties.

Red light cameras are not allowed where I live in New York and as a result, stopping for a red light is apparently optional and a mere suggestion. There are so many drivers speeding through red lights that my practice is to count to five after the light turns green before moving through the intersection.
When I travel to places where red light cameras are used for traffic enforcement, I rarely see anyone running the lights. That’s a good thing in my opinion.
