Post by Philip »

This is a very interesting article - from facial recognition to other uses of data and analysis of sexuality, personal desires, etc.

Is it accurate? What nefarious uses might rogue states and governments use these for?

i doubt it is 100 % accurate.
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.

Sure, evil people would do that.
