Judge Says Public Has a Right To Know About FBI's Facial Recognition Database
schwit1 writes U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan said the bureau's Next Generation Identification program represents a "significant public interest" due to concerns regarding its potential impact on privacy rights and should be subject to rigorous transparency oversight.

I would point out how, if Linux were on half a billion computers and rapidly increasing, it would take over as the primary target of thousands of profiteering hackers, and you would quickly find out how secure it wasn't.
It was a quick ticket to a downmod. I never even used words like "fanboi" or "dried rabbit pebble-chewing ignorami".
Go figure.
