Technology is Eroding the Ability To Move Around the Physical World Anonymously
Something really massive is happening, and I feel like society is barely grasping the tendrils of the implications.

Most adult humans have a device in their pocket capable of recognizing the patterns in another human’s face. Face recognition is just the most obvious side of this new reality. It’s easy to grasp that a computer can remember what your face looks like because humans can do that too (not that well though). But computers don’t care what data is used to tag you, only that the data is unique.
