In Oslo a while back there was a faulty billboard that started outputting all its log data to its main screen.
It was essentially tracking everyone who passed it by characteristics like gender, if they had glasses, where they were looking.
But yeah, every person was just an entry. There was no way for it to know who that person was.
I wish I could find the story but my google-fu isn't helping.

- tyfon 6y agoThat's where people are wrong, it's not about not identifying the 99% that share similar traits, it's about not identifying those who do not share traits with others (in that area). Such a billboard in a small town up north in Norway could easily identify the individuals based on those characteristics since the population is so low.
