1. DHS document says you can't refuse. DHS doesn't make the law - Congress does.

2. Good luck with that

And they treat scans as more definitive than a birth cert or other documents

Congress isn't going to step in and write a law saying you can refuse, and the courts will side with DHS.

4. With AI and those scans, anybody in power can 'prove' anybody they dislike was at a crime scene

Criminal justice goes into the manufactured reality anytime the person in power gets an itch to prosecute people they dislike.

8. Good point.

7. Right.

Article 1!

Fourth Amendment!

3. ICE: Maybe we can't bust you yet, but just you wait! We'll find SOMETHING to blame or frame you for with AI & your face

The company that makes Guy Fawkes masks will be a good investment. And all those MAGAs who were so unable to mask up during Covid? Just watch 'em never setting foot outside without a balaclava pretty soon.

5. We are in a world of trouble

Most people -including here- are not getting it

6. Sounds like something the Stasi would do.

Once they have facial scans of everyone they can track everyone’s movement regardless of citizenship status.

9. Tracking us is bad enough, but combined with AI, they can put ANYBODY at the scene of any crime

We are about to become the United States of I Was Framed.
