@gargron Oh it's so much worse. In a few weeks, the French State has:
- generalized portable cameras for the police
- legalized drones
- legalized facial recognition
- enforced Muslim children being associated with a unique ID
- forbidden filming the police
- appointed the prefecture (national police) to decide who's a journalist
@LaQuadrature have aptly put emphasis on the use of drones and facial recognition to repress demonstrations and they've forgot to mention that drones might do an excellent job at continuously patrolling and linking the faces of Muslim citizens to their unique IDs, for example to raffle them.
The national police is already discreetly raffling undocumented people; they don't want the public to know this but I've witnessed them raffling a black market in search for undocumented persons.
