    I’d imagine anyone who’s survived a fire or acid attack is also getting fucked by this

      I can’t take AI proctored exams because I have a lazy eye and it tracks whether or not you’re looking at the screen. It’s the main thing keeping me from getting a bachelor’s because most associates to bachelor’s RN programs are entirely online.

          Haven’t figured out the best plan. After a quick therapy sesh with the hobos at the bus stop I’m thinking I’m just gonna study the subject matter and see if I can test out of the relevant courses at a testing center (instead of a course with multiple smaller tests).

      The new Online Safety Act over there. They make you scan your face and follow instructions (step forward, turn left, open your mouth, etc.) to access a lot of websites now. It’s creepy, and something similar seems to be being pushed in every western country simultaneously now.

        Just to be clear the law doesn’t say you have to scan your face. That’s just one option to verify a persons age and websites (and users) are choosing that method. I believe other options are to use a credit card or maybe show some kind of government ID. It’s all fucked but the government aren’t making people scan their faces, that’s just one viable method.

      The stated reason is to protect children from porn and such. The real reason maybe (as it often is whenever they say it is about protecting children) an excuse to extend surveillance as much as possible.

          I am probably on the same side as you are, but I was trying to give TacoButtPlug a somewhat measured answer to a seemingly genuine question. I try to start out appearing as a lukewarm lunatic before cranking the heat up to raving.

    Can’t he just go and update his ID? As long as Illuminati forehead has an ID that matches that trainwreck of a face it should work.

      Uk doesn’t have a universal id which is why they are using face recognition for the check.

      You can provide a drivers licence but maybe the guy doesnt have one.
