      Remember that these powers will eventually go to a right-wing government one day. Possibly Farage. I wonder if people will still be ok with it then.

      > The Lords rejected a right to shield your face from surveillance

      > the Lords just cleared the path for police to run it against faces captured in real time at public gatherings

      The future is gonna be shit

      I don’t get it. Why does the government need to know everytime everyone goes to the Aldi, walks the dog, or puts out their bin?

      Further, how is this overwhelmingly useless tsunami of expensive data of any use to them? Isn’t it just a vast cost for rare benefit?

      The UK has become an authoritarian shithole in which the public gleefully vote to remove their own rights. We get what we deserve.

      So what about religious face coverings? Didn’t the government just pass a law around islamophobia? So I can cover my face from facial recognition but only for religious purposes, in which case it’s racist to suggest that I remove it?

      Can’t wait to see how protests are gonna look soon.

      This kind of thing would be the tiniest bit acceptable if it was used to target actual criminals, instead I feel like it will be used to keep normal people in-line.

      Of course. Since the Lords are now just the pets of the hired liars in the other chamber their function is to take a vote losing idea and ram it through. Who couldnhave foreseen etc

      What a surprise, the more the UK government caves in to Palantir, the further concessions they get. It’s a technological invasion.

      Wait… So you’re telling me that an upper class of increasingly irrelevant people attempting to cling on to power and influence, have voted to curtail the rights and abilities of a population to get out of line?

      Well… This could never have been predicted!

      The irony.
