To those reporting this: I agree the credibility of the claims of this article seems questionable. But it is from an established source- and it is not, and should not, be my role as a moderator to determine truth for all readers.

Honestly though it was kinda close in the 90s, and there are idiocracy things like the 3d printer gun shape AI detection being pushed as a gun control policy

I didn't say feudalism. Though I agree, but why is it different from capitalism?

OK, but be honest about it, your problem is the religion itself.

I have many audio recordings of them not just saying "OK" is the problem

[–] aidan@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Trust me, I think they did everything they could to be as obnoxious as possible. Do audio record though

CBP is relentless in its mission to safeguard the nation’s borders and the privacy of all citizens. CBP’s biometric facial comparison technology is hosted within a secure cloud-based environment and does not store biographic data for any travelers. CBP retains U.S. citizen photos for no more than 12 hours after identity verification and only for continuity of operations purposes.

Is what they claim. What you saw may have been about non-citizens

They store the data from everytime you enter and exit the country. For citizens they claim to delete that data after a couple days- but I would not be too confident in that. So if you are a citizen ALWAYS opt out of biometric entry and exit. I've multiple times been told it is not an option, then being forced to wait 10 minutes- harassed about why I want to opt out, then it suddenly becomes an option. This is despite CBPs policy that you cannot be penalized for it. I have several audio recordings of this happening because I noticed how much of a pattern it was.

That's how religion works. It tends to inform people's morality
