I mean tbh it's really a privacy invasion

japan and south korea are actually majorly cockblocking us

they favor domestic companies

with retarded laws

Doesn't southkorea have no nn

no idea but south korea has decent internet

yeah

Pretty crazy

heard you also need social security number to play games online <:thonk:288060975775612929>

yeah

haha

so that they can stop kids playing at night

ok that's a joke kek

botnet country

thanks

@Magmoyote Steuernummer

> This law also caused problems that underage gamers started to steal Resident registration numbers in order to elude the law

top kek

no idea dude

sorry

Im not an adult yet

oh lol

<:hyperthonk:327934332545007617>

well i just know that's the german equiv

but wouldn't it be a problem if it gets banned

I mean the stuff with equifax was a big problem

Since people could make bank accounts with the numbers

there's a market in japan/SK for social security numbers

you can easily buy them

for instance when you want to play a game

like black desert online used to be

you needed to get your hands on one

Thats just insane

In germany I didn't had too

well its not japan and sk

Just asked my mom

oh well

its really insane

@Goz3rr can you give examples of some interesting/cool/scary tracking and advertising tools you guys produce and sell

we do facial tracking that registers dozens of things about you like sex, age, height

what you look at

for how long you look at it

>height

😖

one thing it's used for is to let retailers organize their shelves

imagine the botnet knowing that you're a manlet

and to see if people look at advertisements

the >drink verification can meme is real

advertisers love this kind of data

that tells them how many people looked at their poster etc

with the wifi/bluetooth tracking we can more reliably tell how often you're visiting somewhere

the facial recognition can do that to and extent but if you wear sunglasses or w/e it gets thrown off sometimes

so as long as you're carrying your phone

its not possible for our equipment to give you logs for a specific device though

no technical reason stopping us from doing that, but we just built it that way

<:thenk:329322130804047872>

we could however

theoretically

if you bring us a phone

tell you where that phone was

but we'd need the physical phone for that

Fugg

I know about BT tracking on Schiphol and facial recognition of The Hague CS. But to have these things everywhere

our main customers are retail stores and malls

so if you're walking through a shopping street

it's entirely possible you already got registered multiple times

Thank you chink BT headphones

What can you even do to hide yourself ?

put your phone into airplane mode or turn it off

dont wear any rfid tags

those are tracked too

but not very often

And sunglasses 24/7 ?

sunglasses don't make a difference

that's a meme

what i meant was

if you come in one day wearing sunglasses

and the next you dont

it'll probably register as a different person

if you wear sunglasses every day

it doesnt make a difference

the facial tracking isn't really usable for determining if people return anyways

that's what the wifi/bt tracking is for

Still, chinks are tracking with facial data ?

i dont know

i think they tried to clone our hardware at one point
