Israel has deployed a mass facial recognition program in the Gaza Strip, creating a database of Palestinians without their knowledge or consent, The New York Times reports. The program, which was created after the October 7th attacks, uses technology from Google Photos as well as a custom tool built by the Tel Aviv-based company Corsight to identify people affiliated with Hamas.

Nothing, as long as that’s actually what you’re doing and you are good at doing only that without creating collateral damage.

I don’t think the people upset with the treatment of Gaza got that way by being concerned for the welfare of actual murderous terrorists.
