Israel has deployed a mass facial recognition program in the Gaza Strip, creating a database of Palestinians without their knowledge or consent, The New York Times reports. The program, which was created after the October 7th attacks, uses technology from Google Photos as well as a custom tool built by the Tel Aviv-based company Corsight to identify people affiliated with Hamas.

    So they’re just storing all this facial data unencoded somewhere? Theres no way to figure that out? There is no sort of encoding/decoding going on with the facial data at all? Its impossible chief back it up the bots won? I don’t think so man. People are gonna find all sorts of ways to fuck with this. Now you can join in the speculation or get expactorating all over this post. The choice is your’s.
