Oh. my. god.

Madison Square Garden used facial recognition to identify and stop a mom from attending a Christmas show with her kid because she's an attorney at a firm who is engaged in litigation with them.

This is why it's not enough to just ban government and law enforcement use of #facialrecognition. There are so many ways private companies and even individuals can abuse #biometric #surveillance tech.

#BanFacialRecognition entirely. Yesterday.

Remember: Twitter is Elon's company, he has the free speech and free association right to run it pretty much however he wants and to ban people for petty narcissistic reasons.

And we have the right to laugh and point at his ridiculousness and at the free-speech pretenses of his gullible fans.

So @[email protected] is off on paternity leave (congrats, Nick and Farrah!) but he didn’t turn off our Black Friday sale. That means you can still get a free pin with every copy of Greetings From Effin’ Birds until we run out of books or Nick comes back.

I held hope for Mastodon but just discovered that you guys have run off Wil Wheaton. That's not cool. I'll be putting this one back in the box for a while.
