Reminds me there was a picture going around were you were in back of a full burka woman taking a picture of 5 other full burka women at Disney World, I guess it got buried as too sensitive.

I was at Walmart earlier and as I was going through the line there is a picture of everyone in the line and next thing there is a red square around me. ?? The register girl was pleasant, clear English and communicative. Was I really in Walmart?

In wall mart today I saw three adults with grown children that obviously had some sort of issue that meant they could not function on their own. Two were obviously downs syndrome. The parents were obviously older and had had the care of these kids since birth. I admire them.

Customs at cruise ports use facial recognition when coming back into the country. At least Port Canaveral does.

Don't forget realtime price adjusting. Some chains are installing electronic price tags on the shelves....

That's old news. I've been dealing with digital signs for over a decade.

Years back I chatted with a salesman for security cameras to set up our hotel. He said he could do any kind of install I wanted. I asked what did he mean. After a bit of digging he was describing a casino install with a creepy manager who was doing high def low light cameras he coul pan zoom etc. he really liked filming the ladies in revealing outfits. He also said he did a lot of big box stores in the dressing rooms from above, on the steel beamed high ceilings like wal mart. I asked wouldn't that make shoplifting cases go away? He just said they don't ever admit having the video from dressing rooms. I have a huge issue with video surveillance, but it's being taken to an unbelievable level these days. By the good guys and the bad guys.
