Sixt sent me a message encouraging me to check in early for my car rental. But to do so, I have to consent to a biometric face scan that their third-party contractor keeps on file. No thanks.
Hard pass
So many sites are asking for so much recently. Need some serious global regulations
Bought off bastards will never do it until we kill the billionaires that pay them.
NOPE
Solution: Boycott SIXT.
I wonder how many people will do it.
Basically everyone
Exactly. Blows my fucking mind.
Tried to explain to my family how to opt out of Meta AI in WhatsApp and why it was a good idea.
Wasted my time.
How do you do that? I haven’t used it much since that came in, and you couldn’t opt out at the time.
You can mute it but can’t get rid of it, as far as I know.
I love how doing that, people can’t save media automatically (which I am fine with), export chat AND disable meta AI
How about a fucking toggle “GO FUCK YOURSELF AI”???
I don’t care about crappy meta AI, I don’t want that available but still be able to export my chat if needed (never did) and let others save automatically my media from our chat. TF is this bullshit? LOL
Several years ago Universal Studios wanted my thumbprint to go through a gate. I politely refused, people I was with were annoyed, employee acted like me not giving my thumbprint was a hassle.
Did they let you in without the thumb print or were you left out then?
I went to Universal last year and I don’t remember having to give any fingerprint.
I do remember having to do that for Disney ages ago though. Like, well over a decade ago. I didn’t think much of it at the time.
They do a face scan. Their tiny print terms say they only keep it temporarily, but I don’t believe that at all.
I think you overestimate the efficacy of the vast majority of IT systems. My wife worked on a thumb print scanner and they never store more than a day’s worth of data before getting overwritten because why would you.
I’m not over estimating anything. They take the pic with a cellphone and it gets uploaded.
Yes, but most companies have such bad data management that it probably gets lost or overwritten very soon.
I’ll consent to an anal scan.
Why not both?
How are you supposed to pronounce this service? Because I keep trying and it keeps sounding like sext.
They can’t even spell their T&C’s correctly smh
“Enrolment” is the British spelling.
