They really could have been more explicit throughout the article that "facial verification" is literally the same thing as facial recognition.
More important though, I'm disturbed by the tacit acceptance of govt mass surveillance implied by the focus on how the products of surveillance will be used. How about not carrying out warrantless surveillance of people who aren't suspected of crime?

@2ck although we can't end mass surveillance, we can protect ourselves from it. It's very disappointing to see people willingly accept such attacks on our rights. It's infuriating to see elected intellectuals(not elected politicians, there is a difference) propose such violations using technological innovations as a guise or as a sheath to insert it into our everyday lives.
