Plausible. Rfid or some other pingable ID marker. You'll still get a fight about something physically visible though. Too much Jew with a gold star connotation

- huffmsa 8y agoNow I've got a lot of off color jokes about IoT burqas in my head.
- faceplanted 8y agoKind of an interesting connection there, hard to say that having a marking on your burqa somehow makes it more obvious you're a Muslim. Would be weird to walk around with a licence plate style identifier though, since anyone could scan it and follow you rather than just someone with a massive facial recognition database. honestly the thing I don't like about facial recognition is that it could somehow become mandatory in a country where you're not even required to carry any kind of national ID unless you're driving, and it's suddenly your problem if a facial recognition system you didn't consent to can't recognise you.
- huffmsa 8y agoIt becomes mandatory and the "social credit" system follows shortly thereafter. You stop being an individual and become a cog in the national machine.
