Do you still wear masks in stores and buildings?
Do you still wear masks in stores and buildings?
of course. what am i, some kind of exhibitionist? flaunting myself on every security camera in sight like some kind of whore?
never really did to begin with, if i had to wear it, always below nose
no, i held out for a good while but then i thought getting covid might be kinda refreshing
No, because I’m a passoid who is fully vaccinated
Yes, where I live it's mandatory unless you're eating.
> if i had to wear it, always below nose
god you are so fucking cringe
as someone who's a repper. yea. I always wear it, I always hated my face, and hated that other people had to see my face, so covering it up is great.
no i'm not a sheep
Yeah it might not help against covid if you believe the hype but people are fucking disgusting and I'm glad to have an excuse to filter most of their filth
I like you 15% more now which isn't saying much.
No, I have beautiful lips and chin why would I cover them
kek
>having your face recorded by every random motherfucker with a shopfront
disgusting. the london met have the authority to do facial recognition on every single face at major train stations. and they're the fucking Met they're stupid enough to give the game away. those NSA pricks have been doing it since before i was born. if you weren't covering up pre-pandemic you're fucked already
>still bitching about the nsa
ok terrorist
facial recognition still works with a mask on. the lengths you'd have to go to to make your face unrecognizable are so extreme you'd only end up drawing more attention to yourself
they detect your heartbeat and identify you with that. you got nowhere to hide. its already over. masks, lol.
meds
Also gait recognition is a thing and has been successfully deployed in some countries often complimenting facial recognition technologies… and this has been a thing even pre-COVID. It’s staggeringly difficult to avoid all this government spying all in the name of “protecting against terrorists.” It’s like when shitforbrain fucktards pull out the “but think of the children!1!1!1” card so that any opposition is then met with “so and so wants dead children!1!1!1” The “terrorist” excuse is used in the same vein. Fuck the glowies.
>bitches about sheep
>happy to be watched by the government
not really about "sheep" then for you is it, you fucking redneck
you don't need to "fool" anything you just need to cover up
besides, even without facial recognition, who wants to be on the hard drive of some corporation
same. Not gonna disrupt my breathing for their meme pandemic.
They’re not entirely wrong though. Exaggerated, but not entirely wrong. See It’s already game-over in some places, hiding your face does fuckall. And there seriously needs to be more attention put to this. Everyone’s screaming about facial recognition but the fact is the issue is much, MUCH worse. I personally think the focus on facial recognition is some glowie psyop to distract people away from the fact that they have other ways of recognising and tagging you.
mass media has succeeded in manufacturing disgusting amounts of consent. "if you don't want to be watched by the government at all times you must be a terrorist" "nothing to hide, nothing to fear" it's perverted.
yea, almost always unless i dont have one on me
masks are cool i can hide my ugly face and be bothered less and ever so slightly more protected from sick idiots !
And the anti maskers fell for the bait hook line and sinker
Unless you're a level 79 asthmatic chain smoker trying to run a marathon at the same time a mask makes no difference lmao.
>I personally think the focus on facial recognition is some glowie psyop to distract people away from the fact that they have other ways of recognising and tagging you.
read twitter threads of people going to protests if you want to feel absolute doom over the state of modern "counterculturals"
>One person makes a big long thread of how to use your phone if you want to avoid getting caught at a protest. "Airplane Mode" "Take Out SIM Card" "Cover Camera and Mic" etc etc."
>Replyer says "Just leave it at home it's not hard"
>10 minutes later thread is filled with people selling "burner phones"
>A person's gait is as unique as their voice timbre. Using this knowledge, gait recognition technology was created based on Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. ML-based systems can identify a person from an image even if their face is out of view, turned away from the camera, or concealed behind a mask.
every day i get a little closer to really losing it
covid isn't real. The ability to breathe freely without a piece of cloth between my orifaces and the atmosphere is worth more than making you feel safe from something that isn't real.
Yeah tell me about it. In my shithole country we had mandatory contact tracing for two entire years with Bluetooth tokens, phone apps, mandatory check-in at malls, and so on. Same shit. “If you don’t support this you don’t support public health!!!1!1” and “the glowies promised they will only use this data for COVID purposes!!!1!1!1!1”
Well guess what? The inevitable happened. Our fucking useless police force — who already have the easiest lives in the fucking world — were granted access to the contact tracing information as part of an investigation. And then all the fucking sheep go “who could’ve possibly seen this coming!1!1?1?!1?” Yeah, anyone with a fucking brain. Then the goal posts shifted and the new promise was that the information would only be used for the most serious of investigations. lmao. Typical glowie bullshit. This is the real crux of the matter though: the laws don’t matter, and even if we pretended they did, the glowies can just change it, justify it, do whatever.
I went through the entire two year mandatory contact tracing period without using any of the glowie tracking shit. It was an excellent time to pick up cooking again, I ate at home every single day (and still do since I really love my own food), and just avoided malls and shit. Didn’t take long to adapt to my new life, and in a way it did make me see and appreciate different kinds of things. But I’m in the hyper minority it seems and everyone else is more than happy to bend over backwards to all these lame “terrorist” and “public health” and “protect the children” excuses.
don't worry, even if it gets "banned" every government in the world will keep using it in secret. ofc, it won't. that'd require people actually giving a fuck first
your brain dead if you still take this shit serious with their nonstop contradictions in the past 2 years.
dont reply to that guy
I’m glad I’ve enlightened you on what’s actually going on in this world as far as surveillance is concerned. Like I said there’s 100% some serious psyops going on with regards to the focus being on facial recognition. Spread the awareness. Shit has gotten completely nuts even since a decade ago. Also as mentioned gait recognition isn’t even that new, it’s been successfully deployed long before COVID. And fuck knows what else is currently under secret development.
People are so deluded they're just dying on ventilators and ending up with long covid organ and brain damage all by themselves I guess.
nah user it was already too late before contact tracing and shit. if you have a smartphone you're fucked already. if you want to have a "normal" life of any kind you have to submit to it. the only thing to do is reduce exposure as much as possible
none of that is real. stop watching tv.
At first I had to mask for my job and then I realized it helped with my pollen allergies, let me stop pretending to emote, blocked weird smells, etc. Also I look cool in one. I understand Kakashimoding isn't for everyone but it works for me
yeah i forgot thats big soph.
Yeah lol. I often leave my phone at home purely because I like to travel light. “Oh no but how do you tell the time!??” With my Baby-G and its decade-long battery life retard. “Oh but how ” Me: “I dunno, the same way we humans have lived perfectly functional lives for millennia?” I find it staggeringly unreal how so many people are so attached to their fucking phones and smart watches to the point where they can’t even fathom someone going out without their phone. Even in public transport I just like to look out of the window, appreciate the simpler things in life, and so on. It’s not even about privacy anymore, I just feel a certain sense of freedom being disconnected from all this shit. I don’t need to know about the latest Twatter rant of some long-lost cousin, I don’t need to hear what latest office drama is brewing behind my back in my valuable time off work. Etc. Fuck I don’t even bring my purse with me half the time I go out, I have my travel card in one bra cup, my VISA in the other bra cup, and that’s it. Hands free all day every day.
You should get two more boobs under your current one to start carrying condoms and lube.
