I'd just like to make a post regarding the use of facial recognition, which has coincidentally popped up since the plandemic. One wonders why this kind of invasive technology is necessary.
In Asda recently I noticed at the automated checkouts, the use of individual tablets (facial recognition) installed at each checkout. It is one thing to have CCTV which surveils the store generally, but I think it is wrong to use surveillance in such an invasive way against the individual. It opens a door to all kinds of abuse with AI systems. We have had these automated checkouts in the old way and it has worked fine.
What I would like to gather are the thoughts of others on this. Do you think we could take legal action against businesses that invade our privacy and dignity? These facial recognition tablets have been installed discreetly with no disclosure to the public. No regard for people's dignity or privacy. In my opinion, individual surveillance is a breach of human rights. You only have to read how these technologies are used as tools of oppression in places like Xinjiang and Tibet.
Not only can these technologies abuse freedom of movement and assembly, they can isolate or exclude people. The QR codes for example, a huge scope for surveillance there and like someone on Twitter pointed out, a QR code was needed to get into Pret.
After visiting Cheshire Oaks the other day, the people outside was pretty much normal. But the system of queuing to get in the stores is very sinister. With the interior layouts designed to get people to walk a certain way around a store, and with limited people inside, I feel that this entire system is designed to complement facial recognition and surveillance. It was a very soulless experience, it felt like people were being babysat around the store. And the plastic screening at the counter I find extremely divisive. Everything that we Brits should stand against in this country.
Although busy outside, I could sense that people were pissed off.
It irks me more knowing that this is a scam initiated in order to create an infrastructure with all of these repressive technologies.
If we want to Keep Britain Free. We must legally action the use of facial recognition to protect our privacy and dignity, and at the very least, make sure as many people as possible are aware of the use of this technology and are willing to do whatever we can in terms of awareness. Boycotts, petitions, groups, complaints directly to the companies.
People should be able to visit any store and have their privacy and dignity respected.
🤔 its not looking good......
I think that the facial recognition cameras at self checkouts are linked to the Health passports that our government are secretly trying to establish. A system is currently being used in Africa whereby you are given a digital ID when you take the vaccine. The way they do the ID is via fingerprint or facial scanning. The same system is being used for prisons and surveillance.

COVI-PASS (Health Passports) to control who goes back to work, who travels etc.
theo999 2d ago · Edited: 25m ago COVI-PASS (Health Passports) to control who goes back to work, who travels etc. This is what they are going to use to verify if we have taken the vaccine or not and whether we are eligible to go back to work, travel, and so control us with social credits just like China. If we don't awaken people and the MPs who are clueless to this cornerstone of their plan, I think we are missing trick... And if MPs do know about it and are keeping silent for the sheep to walk into this, they need to be held to account. https://web.archive.org/web/20200525204351/https://www.covipass.com/#CoviPassEndorse Some people/organisations that already know about it: Claire McCloughlin - Head of Interactive Technology, BBC “ The BBC is proud to support a UK company which is pushing the boundaries and can see the benefit of using VCode for a wide range of campaigns” Theresa May - Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom They also have a LinkedIn page, where they are doing some 'PR' https://www.linkedin.com/company/covi-pass/ Govote.org.uk is currently mounting a legal challenge to take the government to court over this but it needs more support for this to happen. Even just spreading the word to let people know what their government has planned for us https://www.crowdjustice.com/case/join-the-legal-challenge-to-st/ Comment H Share Anne Mutch 2d ago Not really surprised that this is being tried - it is part of the Gates plan for global control. It must be stopped now. I will be pledging to the legal challenge. I have to do this on behalf of my grandchildren. I don't want them to have to live in this kind of society. They, and all others , are entitled to live a life as free as I have done until now. Reply H T theo999 2d ago Well said. Thanks. Please share this info with as many people as you can Reply 0 Harminder kambow 1d ago I'm well aware of this health passport/digital immunity certificate and agree this needs to be opposed now before the ball really starts to gather momentum. The question is how who go about this in a real, effective and practical sense? I think we need to frame the argument in term of linking this to a similar authoritarian control system tool of the Chinese (same applies to the cashless society). The world is starting to see how China is imposing it's will across HK & across the globe and the tools it's using to shut down dissenters. Once the public link the Chinese control system with the Covi-pass, people will be more likely to oppose it. Reply theo999 1d ago Exactly. Link to videos of what's happening in China where their ID is linked to an App on their phones whereby they're controlled via social credits. In my other post I suggested we get leaflets printed with the salient points on it showing where the government have lied to people. The leaflets would contain a link to this site or a site where we could show them the videos: the dangers of the Internet of Things, a Cashless Society, Health Passports. I saw this Tweet on Twitter and thought it would be a good starting point of things to put on the leaflet. And of course add Health Passports to it, as it is the purpose of the lockdown. Also, 5G is linked to it - As they need that for The Internet of Things. But that's another group. So, my thinking was that the leaflets could possibly be distributed door to door by the local groups that are being set up. Also, COVI-PASS have a LinkedIn page which is currently acting as their PR machine. We need to get a group set up that will systematically post on their LinkedIn showing the similarities to whats happening in China with control and the credits. (I did reply earlier on but didn't see it here. Wastn't sure if it reached you or not) Reply H theo999 1d ago And with regard to the cashless society, there's another Twitter post I saw that I think would be excellent to utilise... When people see this, they will think again Reply H Harminder kambow 13h ago There is a 'keep cash UK' group on Facebook that i'm a member of. Please everyone join. Members are messaging companies is they accept cash or not, and if it's card only we are telling them we are boycotting them (it's worded much more nicely and we try not to be confrontational). There have been a few wins and some companies/branches ave now started to accept cash. WE are also trying to educate the advantages of using cash and the potential dangers of the cashless society Reply T theo999 10h ago Excellent! Thankyou. Reply 0 kaywhat 10h ago Just did a bit of research on this very disturbing Covipass idea: It looks like US investment firm Blackstone (Real Estate) - a firm that manages 545bn US$ - is behind this Covipass concept and they bought "health-care software company HealthEdge just in April (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blackstone_Group#Investments_since_2016) , so possibly HealthEdge is the company that has developed the Covipass system (https://www.healthedge.com). May this info be used for whatever it's useful. Reply T theo999 10h ago Nice one! Reply 0 theo999 10h ago · Edited: 1s ago So, It's in Africa... Africa to Become Testing Ground for “Trust Stamp” Vaccine Record and Payment System A new biometric identity platform partnered with the Gates-funded GAVI vaccine alliance and Mastercard will launch in West Africa and combine COVID-19 vaccinations, cashless payments, and potential law enforcement applications. Reply 0 theo999 26m ago Proper mark of the beast stuff "It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[a] That number is 666." (The Bible) "Trust Stamp’s biometric identity system, largely funded by Mastercard’s massive investment in the company in February, utilizes a technology it calls Evergreen Hash that creates an AI-generated “3D mask” based on a single photo of a person’s face, palm or fingerprint. Once this “mask” is created, much of the original data is discarded and encryption keys are created in place of a person’s name or other more traditional identifiers." "Genner also explained in a recent press release that the unique “hash” is capable of “evolving” as a new hash with updated health information is created every time a child or individual gets a vaccine. Trust Stamp’s AI algorithms can accurately determine if different hashes belong to the same individual, meaning that “the hash evolves over time just as you evolve,” said Genner." "Trust Stamp’s interest in providing its technology to both COVID-19 response and to law enforcement is part of a growing trend where numerous companies providing digital solutions to COVID-19 also offer the same solutions to prison systems and law enforcement for the purposes of surveillance and “predictive policing.” Full Article: https://mastercardcontentexchange.com/perspectives/2020/signed-sealed-encrypted-this-digital-id-is-all-yours/
I agree with all but the facial recognition validation, I believe the software has been adjusted to accommodate that now.
The face masks/muzzles/face nappies that we are being forced to wear surely invalidate any facial recognition system. Also they are a charter for petty criminals to act as they please. On a quiet country road near here they put up a post with a single camera ten years ago. Now there are 4 cameras attached to it. Follow the money. A lot of this unwarranted intrusion of our privacy is driven by the need (greed) for profit of the companies that manufacture the equipment.
Ever lost a file on your pc? Just phone up GCHQ and ask them if they can let you have a copy!
I tried posting your question on the libertyhumanrights.org.uk website but was unable to as the email form wouldn't send it. Maybe you can give them a try. They offer free advice https://www.libertyhumanrights.org.uk/advice-and-information/contact-us/written-advice/
Totally agree. I noticed it in Sainsbury's also. Intrusive to say the least. I think it was introduced some 2 years ago/ People complained but the response was some rubbish about 'trying to improve the customers' experience'. It is part of the plan. A cashless society is what they're aiming for. Remember the scaremongering tactics with regard to using cash - asking people to use contactless because cash can be spread via banknotes. This also needs to be nipped in the bud. As you say, the facial recognition, cashless tech is being used in China with social credits to control people's movements.
Just a point, I have worked as a cctv engineer for many years and had to be aware of data protection laws. Any recording of images without appropriate signs could very well be breaking data protection laws.
Ryan, I totally agree. The public are not consulted about any type of surveillance It started with street cameras to 'keep us safe'. Whilst there is a modicum of truth in that, people with harmful intentions simply cover their head and face or change their vehicle registrations!
The introduction of those.was just the first step towards total surveillance of the population world-wide. This is part of the dark plan for humanity control, and has been discussed for many years now, but not everyone does the research.
We need to take a firm stand and in the case of supermarkets and other shops also introducing this imposition, a shoal of letters to the company board of directors would be a good start. Profit and customers are the total focus of such companies and a threat of less of those could prove useful.
Perhaps there is a member with the legal knowledge or the means to find some, who can explain the legal rights of citizens to be consulted before installation, and to reject all camera surveillance? A significant step to take back our own power.
Peace To All
