    I get the impression that the cops are about to hate facial recognition all of the sudden, for no particular reason

      There’s a reason ICE conceal their faces.

      They know what they’re doing is wrong and don’t want to be held accountable if their fascist rule collapses.

        So just use one too and blend in. Put on a stupid Trump or racist hat, and if you are not white, put on gloves. Then surround them.

      Also what about cops outside of the LAPD? This app only useful if it works on any cop.

      No. Those are gravy Seal wannabees. Ice isn’t doing anything on the streets. They are doing the behind the scenes stuff. Deputized bounty hunters are the ones in the streets. No badge, no authority, and as you know instantly disavowed.

    What are they so afraid of? They’re public servants, so they should be publicly identifiable. If they don’t like it, get off the government payroll

      Because criminals get out of jail and can go after their families. We had someone leave a bomb on the doorstep of a judge in our neighborhood.

        I wasn’t expecting crims to go after their own families, but I’m here for it….

        Was the judge a dick head?

          If I remember correctly they were convicted of embezzlement. Narcissists and psychopaths get mad when they are held accountable.

    Breaking news!
    First animal facial recognition tool invented!
    Soon you’ll be able to prove another rancher stole some of your cattle,chickens,etc…
    For now only works for pigs.

        fix what. You have some expectation that everything is actionable and merely a matter of nattering at people to go do it?

        We cant know its a honey pot and its not even remotely realistic to say a citizen can fix it or investigate it. Even an arm of the state would be unable to investigate an intention. So you’re trolling.

          Yeah, they’re all honeypots. Signal, honeypot. Lemmy, honeypot. Linux, honeypot. Can’t make anything else. /s
