Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
trying to conceal their identity during a crime
Sounds a lot more like what ICE is doing than what the frogs are doing.
I can't verify the identify of a masked "ICE agent" so I can only assume they are a malicious person who is lying about their identity and trying to kill me.
Very tangential but:
I've always suspected the reason the chuds had such massive pushback over masking up during covid (or just whenever you are sick) is related to this.
People vastly overestimate the effectiveness of even an n95 for defeating facial recognition (as well as facial recognition mattering less if you can trace someone, via cameras, back to when they put the mask on in the first place). But it very much felt like manufactured hatred by The Thin Blue Line.
Chuds are just following propaganda. It’s the wealthy that fed them that obsession, and yes, they definitely want facial recognition.
Yeah, i just wish there was a convenient way for me to change my gait
A small rock in your shoe will change it enough that you won't be recognizable from gait alone.
For those interested, California, Michigan, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Florida also have this as a state law.
So all the coolest, most respectable states then.
I was pretty disappointed to see California there
They literally can't arrest all of us. They can try, but they can't.
They are heading the way of Russia, so expect them to begin bringing out prison buses to protests to round up all the people they arrest.
Now would be a good time for cities to shut down roads near ice facilities for vehicle traffic. Make it impossible for these freaks. Leave them a giant maze of construction and pedestrian only roads to navigate to get in and out of facilities.
unfortunately they'll take that as a challenge
they use their AI and data harvesting from myriad security camera footage/social media posts to attach every face at every protest to a name and physical address
can't do that if you're wearing a mask and left your phone at home
Rules can't criminalize anything. The thing they're thinking of is "laws". Which haven't changed.
This is not to say they won't arrest people. It'll just either be for a law that already existed that we were just assuming they wouldn't abuse, or it will be an illegal arrest to hopefully be quickly booted from court by a judge.
Laws don't matter if you get swept up without due process and disappear.
Looks like I need to get my Conceal carry permit ugh
This also exists btw https://surveillancefashion.com/ir-blocking-garments-for-privacy-protection/
I hope they target themselves
So, ICE are breaking federal laws then, eh? They are wearing masks while commiting crimes against legal, authorized citizens fo the country. You'll ha e a hard time using that law in a court of law
~~Federal~~ Feral cops.
