To be fair, those cameras are the absolute worst! At 43, I am told all the time I do not look my age, but those damn cameras truly make me feel like a goblin coming out of hiding.

The combination of the camera and the fluorescent overhead lighting makes me look like hot ass garbage. Lookin at you Target.

Nah, sorry, I'm not from Prison Planet 9. The machines here don't watch us every moment of our lives.

It watches you while you scan your shopping to deter shoplifters, it also records and makes you look like the crypt keeper.

Creepy shit, never seen one before.
Closest I've encountered is the staff at Home Depot who stand behind me every single fucking time I use the self-checkout. Half the time they even scan my stuff for me, which I think entirely defeats the purpose, but they offer no alternative any longer.

The facial recognition on the self checkout remembers you.

Probably not good to normalize this sort of tech.

My sister literally sent me a pic of herself the other day saying "pretty good for 54!"
I replied with a pic of the 'keeper saying "Not bad for 43 either!"

I was on a date recently, I'm 44m, still in great shape, hair is still good, feel good.
I show my date a picture of me and my cat, from 13 years ago. She says "Who is the guy in the picture?" I say "That's me..."
I guess things have changed lol
