I’m calling it: they’re going to have Palantir set them up with a database of likely Democrat voters paired with facial recognition and arrest everyone who is a positive on their easy to the polls.
And then they’ll have the mail-in votes thrown out.
I doubt facial recognition technology works well enough for that to be feasible, I think facial recognition technology using just cameras, esp. without high quality photos, is a bit like the polygraph/lie detector, it can give you some bullshit grounds to subject people to additional scrutiny basically on a whim, but has little practical application
They’re trying to use it but I don’t think the technology itself is reliable. It could be reliable with LIDAR but I think photos alone are not enough, especially from blurry/low res images.
I think it’s mostly a scare tactic to dissuade dissent.
They’ll round up whoever they like and use facial recognition as justification. My point is I don’t think they can use facial recognition in a way that wouldn’t also get false positives (i.e. without preventing MAGA votes). I think it’s way more likely that it’ll just be used as voter intimidation in blue states.

Isn’t this exactly what ICE is doing today, all the time though? https://www.404media.co/ice-is-using-a-new-facial-recognition-app-to-identify-people-leaked-emails-show/ Maybe it’s not accurate but does it matter if they succeed in delaying or intimidating votes?

That’s the problem. They’ll round up whomever.
