"Creepy Surveillance Trend Spreads to Local Eateries: A Growing Concern for Privacy Enthusiasts A phenomenon that has been making headlines in recent months is now being reported in a more intimate setting - at local restaurants. Patrons are expressing alarm as facial recognition technology, once confined to public spaces such as airports and shopping malls, is now being deployed in some eateries. The use of such technology raises serious questions about the balance between convenience and individual privacy, as diners may be unwittingly surrendering their personal data to surveillance systems. As this trend continues to spread, consumers are left wondering what other establishments may be quietly monitoring their every move."
And now it's showing up at my favorite restaurants too.
