Israel has deployed a mass facial recognition program in the Gaza Strip, creating a database of Palestinians without their knowledge or consent, The New York Times reports. The program, which was created after the October 7th attacks, uses technology from Google Photos as well as a custom tool built by the Tel Aviv-based company Corsight to identify people affiliated with Hamas.

    What if I tell you the instant you make a successful protest. Leak information of crimes commited by the government, or threaten some industry interests they’ll do that anyways.
