You picked the wrong career if you’re worried about hiding from the government

Face scan by itself isn’t the issue, it’s the storage (hack/stolen) and how your data will be used. Washington Post is reporting the FBI and ICE have been using DMV databases for face pictures. I suppose sheeple like you don’t care about that egregious overstep either.
You don’t recall fingerprints? Seriously? I’ve been fingerprinted multiple times in this career. Background checks, SIDA badges, etc.

None of you are, actually, so important the the government is actively spying on you... either buy a DeLorean and go back to the 19th century or deal with living in a modern society - with all the good and bad elements that entails.

It amazes me how many people suffer from delusions of grandeur.

“But it’s free!” they say. Nothing is free. If it’s free, you and your info are the product.

How much are you paying to be on APC?

All of your bases are belong to us! Also, just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

No, but making logs of where we go, who we talk to, what we buy, etc for possible reference later... that is a reality.

How is it overstep for them to use a government owned photo? You do not own your license, it's government property.
