    If your trying to insinuate that a bunch of gay night club owners are somehow data harvesting for big AI, then all I have to say is that the simplest answer is usually the correct one. Not everything is a big conspiracy.

      All cctv cameras are connected to facial recognition, a lot of doorbell and civilian ones too, in case you have been living in a news free bubble for the past 20 years.

        And AI is the new sticker they slap on those exact same systems. Its just marketing.

        The objection people had to the system was the facial recognition system, not the AI part. Whether its classic face recognition or AI recognition, no one wants to be tracked going into a nightclub, especially if they may not be publically out of the closet.
