Using facial recognition while covering their own faces. Classic.

Well we’ve seen that people will dox officers and threaten them and their families with violence. These are just officers doing their job, a job which the democratically elected officials empowered them to do.
Tens of millions of people broke the law crossing the border, with that scale of a problem it’s not surprising some level of automation is needed.

They’re using the facial recognition on anyone who asks them to identify themselves properly. Not to do their jobs (agree or disagree with the premise of that job), but to intimidate people. They’re just bullies who have their first taste of power since high school.

here's the thing
If I flew to Japan, overstayed the visa, take a job under the table, just hang out living there... I would not be surprised that, should the government discover me, that I would naturally be deported.
I will be happy to let America be a place where people can waltz in here unannounced and live here and do whatever, have an anchor baby, get SNAP and WIC and medicaid and welfare to raise that anchor baby, that's cool.... provided that I can go have a Japan anchor baby, live there without any visa or immigration paperwork whatsoever, and enjoy the free healthcare. I don't mind if people coming in never learn english... provided I can go to France and rightfully expect to have the French bend a knee and instead learn English on my behalf.

You have no expectation of privacy in public as law enforcement performing duties.
