A bill in Congress would ensure that federal agencies cannot use this invasive technology to track, identify, and misidentify millions of people.

    Yes, but a federal ban in the US is not enough. We need bans also in Europe, China and all other countries …

        It would be a start but not helpful if it stops there. The surveillance in China and its social credit system is a desaster for the people and much worse. A ban in the US doesn’t help the people over there.

        Edit for an addition: Iran to install cameras in public to spot women wearing no hijab
