I mean, the tech is cool, but has terrifying implications.
Eh this is nothing new since the biometrics portion has been part of the process for a few years. The only new part is that now you can skip the passport. The terrifying portion had already arrived many years ago unfortunately.
Holy fuck, hard pass.
Have you flown international lately? This is what it looks like to land in the international terminal in most major US airports as well.
Have you? I travel a lot for both business and leisure. I’ve never been through anything like this. Maybe I’m just visiting more civilized places.
I flew into Boston from Europe three weeks ago.
I also flew into NYC from Europe earlier this year.
They use images of your face and biometrics. This is how travel works. It has nothing to do with how civilized you think you are.
then you don’t need to come to Singapore. their country their rules
I really dislike this argument. Just because it’s “their country, their rules” doesn’t not make it an issue? Especially when it comes to privacy concerns. Privacy concerns are universal. There are a plethora of serious issues that are not defended by “national sovereignty”. If that was the case we should just turn a blind eye to North Korea, right?
