Hi all,

I am travelling soon to the US, for my vocation and as a long-time private person I will be taking some steps to maintain my privacy as I enter the country.

As this is an interesting area of the topic, I have decided to throw the question open to all of you.

What precautions (IT, physical, mental, otherwise) do you undertake when travelling internationally?

M.

I believe they use a special camera for this, if you opt out you don’t go in front of it. But s, yes, surely there’s a ton of other facial recognition in airports using security cameras and stuff. Total Domain Awareness is everywhere. But every bit counts.
