I saw an article about this topic a while back. I assumed they meant fans, but I see now that only those individuals who access restricted areas will use the new biometric scans. I will bet you that NFL fans' faces are now being covertly scanned--probably justified with a small clause in their ticket sale agreement that allows the NFL to do so. Fans will not be notified; a third party and its partners will aggregate the fans' faces and correlate with credit card statements and other means of identification (drivers licenses--they may even be able to access DMVs in each state); and their faces will be sold or given to China who appears, from Gates' previous interactions with them , to be the hub designated for the capture of worldwide digital ID. I can understand your cynicism, Ben. I so despair at America today. When I read one interesting fact today, I must extrapolate the repercussions 10X because the dark projects and people are so far ahead of us. I think 2030 is a serious deadline.
Commie? No. Fascist? As in Nazi Germany Redux? Yes. Read your history. Only a matter of time before the exterminations begin. Like Hitler said, Socialism for the rich, and showers for the rest of you. Especially dingbat sports fans who don't read books,
Come on, guys. Hire better writers for this simulated world you've created for us peasants, huh? What, you're copying Dickens now in punny names? *Brandon Covert* (eye roll)
all apologies for the typo at the top. it's been fixed

Is that a RED LINE for the moron slaves "fans" of NFL?!
Of course NOT...
Ugh.
Maybe a better headline would be NFL admits to deploying facial recognition tech at all 32 stadiums a decade ago.
It will be used to begin collecting people's faces. This is truly black mirror terrifying.
