Like, as a user, I don't want to be forced to identify myself with facial recognition every time I load a site on the internet, and as a site owner, I absolutely don't want to make y'all do it either!
This. I post very little on sites like Facebook, because of their "real" (wallet) name policy. I have used this pseudonym online for nearly 30 years. During that time I have gone from "female" to "non-binary", and may eventually make further changes.
The idea of having to log in with my face to make a post is simply horrible.
There are way too many laws "to protect chiiiiiiiildren" that stomp all over the free expression and association rights of adults. I believe it is the parents responsibility, not a government's responsibility, to keep their precious children away from content they don't approve of.
Me making a post about why I don't consider myself a women, or even swearing against the assault on our reproductive rights and bodily autonomy, should not have to be censored at the behest of the government because some parent somewhere might be offended that little Johnny might see it.
Also, facial recognition schemes are expensive and don't work very well. I would not use it as a login for anything I cared about, like my bank.
IMO, the whole law is a solution in search of a problem. If parents would do their job they wouldn't have to ask the government to censor adults.
