Hi Jessica, I’m a tech reporter who’s been covering this issue. I think you’re unfortunately quite unaware of how different a service like Apple Pay is vs the facial scans that are being proposed. I suggest chatting w people who know about this topic if ur going to be covering!

Not all the outrage is "fake", by the way.
You’re going to see an incredible amount of fake outrage about facial scans by people who merrily have their faces scanned 20 times a day to use Apple Pay.

ran some of the links through an AI to see what the deal was and it found that the domain for at least one of them appears to be associated with a cryptocurrency presale project called "APEMARS".
This site has become almost unusable because of how many different fake images there are of Farage beating up Andrew Bailey - never seen anything this number... it's like every second post!

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
