What about risks from facial recognition in airports? I’m shocked how everyone just says yes and does the scan. That is going to normalize facial recognition everywhere else including rental housing.

Never had a TSA employee not make some eye-roll or snarky remark. They're aware of the social shaming loophole.

Flying out of LGA once and opting out of the body scanners, while I was being patted down, another TSA agent watched from about 20 feet away and kept doing "kissy" faces at me until it was over.
