Anyone can now buy motion activated cameras with enough storage for months of video, some even battery powered for <$100 each. A couple of those pointed at your residence is enough to remove a ton of privacy. Now imagine some company/blockchain rewards ppl for uploading those motion caps.

- doomrobo 5y agoThe argument is a lazy abdication of responsibility. Also I'm like 90% sure that Hoan Ton-That, Clearview's founder gave the same exact argument for why he built it
- aeternum 5y agoThis is one place where government should step in and we should add regulations if enough people agree. It's ridiculous to expect every company to choose not to pursue this as part of some unspoken morality.
- sterlind 5y agoDon't worry, Thiel invested sizeably in Clearview too. I lost it hearing how he denounced AI as "basically Communist" while actively building and funding it. Did the money he earned damage his brain into forgetting how he made it?
- aeternum 5y agoIf you believe in the power of a weapon/tech and others are ignoring it, isn't the smart move to own & control it?
