Why would they argue that point if they didn't have the ability to do it? That means one day you might come back from vacation and CBP sees a meme you liked 20 years ago and decides you are a problem. A little A.I. analysis of your bank records shows some suspicious activity and now you get audited.



"Guility people are the only ones who should be worried" is some bootlicking logic right there.

Why did they care about me? I was randomly selected for additional screening without ever given a reason. What might me minuscule now could be the new norm in the future. Why do you think airports are using facial screening software? It is no faster than scanning a boarding pass, but now it gives a nice database so a cop can quickly scan your face when you happen to be walking past a protest event during your overnight. Now your social credit score takes a hit.
