Well it makes sense. Hamas often pose as civilians to get the enemy off guard and then pull out an RPG.
Israel needs some way to be able to pull them out of a crowd. Especially if civilians are to be protected.
Anyway it's not like most western countries aren't already doing this, they just haven't told us yet. But there's an awful lot of cameras around Europe now and I'm sure they must have facial recognition tech.
And of course there's China who doesn't hide it it all.
Eventually it will be worldwide if it isn't already.
Edit: I'm not saying I endorse it, it's terrible, but my point is that they can kind of justify it with their allegation that Hamas dresses as civilians. Also that, very sadly, this is a worldwide trend which will most likely only get worse because the "elites" behind all this world system (and the genocide in Gaza) seem to be succeeding in pushing through their plans.
I don't think anyone would risk that with GDPR.
You'd be surprised. I think the governments of the world do as they wish, secretly. As long as no one finds out..... But who knows really?
