I’m willing to bet they were using various other recognition systems across the parks well before this to track things like banned individuals and trouble makers.

The technology has been around for decades. To think that a company like Disney wasn’t at least testing these things for years is a bit ridiculous.

This is just a new specific use case being announced.

To say a closeup of your face on the way in isn’t an escalation is what’s ridiculous

Yup lines keep getting crossed and crossed. At what point is there pushback? There seems to still be a lot of people who are happy to go along with it. The ability to say no is always an option, its not wrong, its not confrontational. its a basic right.
