So law enforcement is doubling down on facial recognition systems that privacy advocates are calling 'out-of-control.'
Another step toward mass surveillance? Makes you wonder how decentralized identity solutions could flip this script. When governments can track every face in a crowd without consent, maybe it's time we started talking seriously about self-sovereign identity and encrypted verification systems.
The irony: tech built to "protect" us might be the biggest threat to privacy we've seen. Web3 solutions anyone?

Bro, this facial recognition has been garbage for a long time. The government is watching us every day, and they still dare to call it protection? What a joke. Here comes the Web3 savior narrative again.

Damn, facial recognition is getting more and more out of hand. Feels like privacy is already dead.

ngl, facial recognition is basically a surveillance system disguised as protection... Web3 authentication is the real solution, right?
---
Yet another clichéd surveillance script... It's long overdue to switch to self-sovereign identity.
---
LOL, to put it bluntly, it's just the government running mass tracking, and we're still naively believing their "protection" narrative.
---
This is the real privacy nightmare... When will decentralized authentication finally become widespread?
---
That's why, traditional authentication is beyond saving; it has to be encrypted to work.
---
The abuse of facial recognition should have been criticized long ago... The Web3 solution really deserves to take the stage.
---
Yet another "for your own good" excuse... Self-custody is the ultimate answer, okay?
---
Surveillance capitalism wins again, huh. There has to be a decentralized alternative.

Seriously, the government's whole facial recognition setup should have been regulated long ago. Web3 self-sovereign identity authentication is the real solution.

Honestly, the government's facial recognition system is just insane—there's no privacy left, so how can we even talk about freedom... Web3's self-sovereign identity should have become mainstream a long time ago.
