Even Taylor Swift Is Using Facial Recognition Tech Now

Look What You Made Her Do

While fans were watching Taylor Swift, they didn’t know they were being watched back.

According to a recently published story in Rolling Stone, the pop star used facial recognition technology at a California concert to search the crowd for any of her known stalkers — without attendees’ knowledge.

And it’s far from the only example of the tech’s increasing ubiquity in American life.

On May 18, fans flocked to Swift’s concert at the Rose Bowl stadium in Pasadena, California. On their way to their seats, many stopped by a kiosk showing clips of the artist rehearsing.

Too bad she isn't using critical thought before endorsing political candidates.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-

It's so sad that she has pissed off so many people that she can't remember what they all look like.
