You have the right to opt out of facial recognition tech. Here’s how.

In theory, an officer is then supposed to manually look over your ID and compare it to your face, as they used to do before facial recognition. But in practice, there have been reports of passengers — even a senator — facing resistance or intimidation when they try to go this route.

The same thing that happens in most cases where a person tries to assert their rights.

I always opt-out and have never gotten push back. Sometimes I’ll even start a trend with people behind me.

Cop beating you: Stop resisting! Stop resisting!
