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 is casual about this. Be pessimistic if you want. But we will not stop jabbing the eye that watches. This is an arms race.

What I’m saying is that you personally haven’t done any of this and look stupid.

Yep, people do use vulnerabilities in software and hardware to do things. Just not you, so that “we” seems weird.

Neither did I, I just played with crackmes and shellcodes a bit, but I’m not the person writing pretentious posts with that “we”.

The original commentor I replied to was speculating about this being commonplace. You came in with your statements about people having to do things to talk about them in a post about speculation.
