Step 1: Record biometrics from millions of poor people.
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit.
It's a bit like the outlandish COVID vaccine conspiracy theories:
Step 1: Vaccinate people and deploy 5G wireless networks.
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Total power over people; world domination.
- _fat_santa 3y agoTotal speculation but it could be used as training data for GPT5 or whatever they are doing at OpenAI. I could totally see a scenario where they would want to train an AI on biometrics data and then sell that to the govt.

- rurp 3y agoWell for one thing a database of biometric records gives you an immutable way to impersonate those people on any other platform that relies on the same biometrics. But that's kind of beside the point. I wouldn't be at all confident that you or I thinking about this problem for a few minutes are going to uncover every possible abuse vector that a motivated nefarious actor will in the future. Collecting this kind of private data for no clear benefit looks sketchy as hell.
