    "Discriminating against certain categories of shoppers"
    What did you mean by that Jacob Ward? Can you elaborate on what features those 'categories of shoppers' posses?

    Is the company that made the software face any responsibility and repercussions?

      And it was a legitimate question. I was curious.

      ​@@thaphreakyou aren't using logic at all.. if a company told rite-aid that their face recognition worked when it obviously doesn't, why is it that out there for that company to be held accountable?

      They didn't commit any criminal offense. Most of this technology comes with a contractual understanding that it's not 100% accurate anyways.

      The AI using facial recognition hasn't been "taught" enough. It was loaded with tons of white people's biometric rules, but all other races were underrepresented. The "rules" it was using were inadequate. This is a big problem.

    You only did it in a handful of stores, but in the meantime, you ruined several people’s lives when they got arrested and couldn’t get a job or suffer lifelong mental trauma for being helpless and humiliated in a threatening situation.
