A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

I’m going to think twice before enerting any big box store because of this.
I am amazed that anyone is still using them. It is the 21st century, just shop online.
Last time I ordered big boxes online, they just shipped me empty boxes. I don’t know how they screwed that up, but then I’ve always gone to big box stores so I can actually see the big boxes I’m buying.
No need to avoid such stores, just wear a protection to avoid your face from being falsely flagged.
