Most Evangelicals will see this as one of the precursors to the requires mark of the beast.

While I believe the "rapture" is the "first resurrection" "first resurrection." (1Jn. 3:2; Rm. 8:23; 1Co 15:53, 54; 2Co. 2-4; Revelation 20:6) at the end of the tribulation, yet some of the old "rapture" movies in essence portrayed some of basic developments which current events are precursors of. My favorite, if poor video quality: "Years of the Beast: "

I have the Global Entry card issued by Customs and Immigration. Came back from Europe through Newark. Swiped the card, camera scanned by face. Customs officer 20 feet down the aisle smiled and greeted me by name.

Meanwhile, hundreds stood in line waiting for an officer. Pretty neat I thought.

“more convenient airport experience”

Contradicting terms since there is nothing convenient in the current airport experience & biometrics being added to the mix only complicates it further, IMO.

I bet the illegals get to bypass the system.

Airports? How about street corners, 7-11, malls, Walmart, etc. etc. It’s already all over the place.

Question: In the last 10 years, how many terrorists have been caught by the TSA at airports? A total waste of money for data mining!

Is facial recognition legal in the US?

With few exceptions, the U.S. does not currently have authoritative guidance, regulations, or laws to adequately address issues related to facial recognition technology use, the report finds.Jan 17, 2024

I expect company (private) and public cameras will disappear, as crime by government increases.

Because the government wants to lie and tell its “story” (”the narrative”).

The problem for government that lies, is that, as its crimes increase, more of its members see THE GOVERNMENT is obviously the criminal.

Government can lie and hurt many millions of people, but government cannot completely stamp out:

Truth

Nor, stamp out the birth of people who are born with:

The truth gene. That leads to a tree of liberty.

When this get cheap enough, we can use it for voter ID.

At that point, the dems will tell us that black people disproportionately don’t have faces.

I think they are already using it at cruise ports. Returning from a cruise, no longer need to go through immigration to show proof of US citizenship.

I am not concerned. I have been finger printed dozens of times for back ground and security checks in my line of work. Nearly all of us are on file with the DMV or State Department. What pisses me off is the illegals just walking around without a care.

And how many people are foolish enough to willingly give the government, sorry, genetic testing companies like 23 and Me, a DNA sample they can plant anywhere.

So what is the problem they are trying to solve?

I have a paid ticket, for one paid seat.

Take me to my destination.

Oh, I may be a terrorist, I guess, on the watch list.

Yeah, that watch list, the one that puts you at the front of the line at the border.

Taxi drivers don’t do facial on me (yet, I think).

I don’t think they have facial cameras at the state borders on the freeways (yet).

Why do they need to ID travellers, anyway? So they know exactly who went exactly where exactly when? Why?

I go back and forth to SE fairly often if it makes getting to the gate sooner, I’m fine with it.

I figure by this time they have hundreds of photos of me anyway so a few more isn’t going to change anything...

No worries we drove from FL to Dallas TX instead of flying. On our way back to FL as I type.
