Mass surveillance is here
You see this black line above the steering wheel on this Lexus? It might not look like much but that’s the new Diver Monitor System
If you set your camera to the right frame rate, you can actually see the 2 red dots used to monitor and track your eyes
These invisible red dots are always watching you
This is the start of a mass surveillance state that can control your driving
The Lexus Driver Monitor System uses a small infrared camera and sensor
It detects drowsiness, distraction, or sudden medical issues. If you don’t respond to warnings, it can issue escalating alerts, slow the vehicle, or bring it to a stop
Now imagine if the government got a back door into these systems
Think about it this way too, this data could be shared with law enforcement or the government against your will
These systems should not be allowed on vehicles. We’ve lived fine without them for decades
