Buying Food with Facial Recognition in China
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 янв 2019
- In China, you can use your face to buy food, thanks to facial recognition, QR codes, and WeChat Pay. But is the convenience worth the loss in privacy? We went to Shenzhen to explore this technological development and understand how close China is to becoming a cashless society.

Looking at this shit makes me feel bad for humanity !!! I remember times when I was discussing with my mother about her childhood and she was telling me that old times was better simple and everything was easier and everyone was happy. My arguments was that our childhood is better because of technology and futuristic gadgets!!! Now after watching this I want 80’ 90’ back so baaaad!!!
People do only riminess the good things of life. we don't like to remember the not so good. Life was a lot simpler , but with that medicine was not as developed. You had wars and technology has helped to diminish the threat. Simpler means riding a horse instead of a car. Its just evolution, what works stays and what not falls away. Put people back in the eighties and they will not like it. Dealing with emotions stays the same.
Well, just talk to the kids nowadays. I bet they will say their life is better than your childhood. I also feel sometimes I want to re-live some moments of my childhood. But if I put things side by side and consider all things objectively, I have to admit the new generation has access to a lot more things/activities than what I used to have. But I still feel I had better childhood. That’s just human nature.

@@raymondglad5593 you went off subject, the op meant phones and ppl being glued and having their life revolving around a phone...i see ppl staring at a phone and theres no hapiness behind it...it looks like a habit.
@@zhe8586 they may have more access but i rarely see them outside...list off a few things that make it betterothen than endless content that they wont remember in 40 years.
Big brother approves this.
This is how it happens. Introduce it slowly and make it greatly convenient and (addictive) until it’s widely accepted even when it infringes on your rights.
What am I even doing here You are being spyed on anyway. Every time you use your bankcard it was collected infos at your bank. Now it‘s simply a different app.
And sorry but I love it. Like he said if you don’t commit any crimes there is nothing to be worried about. As a women I feel way more safe at night in China than in other countries in the west. It‘s an amazing feeling actually
@@JustLIkerapunzel And think about what would happen if this was taken away from you by some faceless person on a keyboard. You would become a non person with no recourse to justice, no home, no credits, no heating .no lighting, no food. Read a history book for an hour and you will find many people capable of doing this.
@@JustLIkerapunzel amazing comment. I have lived in many first world countries, and never been more happy or safe than in china. And NO, I'm not licking China gov balls.
This is the mark of the beast
@@ilovenoodles7483 I agree with you bro
Can't you see? She has a square Mark of the Beast glowing on her forehead, one can see it with physical eyes.
Think about it, people wear facial masks, plus their hair style changes, their facial features too can change due to bloating, aging etc. What
it means, and this has been prophesied by sages, is that a laser
imprinted bar-code/qr code is imprinted on people's foreheads at the
deepest skin layer when they use this biometric data collecting
technology. It is this bar-code that the system like Face Pay
recognizes. Photo is just a cover up. You become no different than a can
of condensed milk or a bag of potato chips that be scanned by a
machine. Don't do that, it is a sinful act.
Yes this is the mark of the beast system. Remember China called dragon. Dragon=devil. I guess antichrist will be a chinese.
There is no physical mark of the beast on her forehead. A tattoo is not necessary. Algorithms can be trained on biometrical recognition even on humans wearing a face mask and there is a reason why id-card's and digital id are only valid over a specific time period. Than you have to take a new photo for the renewal of your id. The mark of the beast, what it really is, you describe it in you last sentence. It's a mindset, it's a choice and the way you act in this world. The mark on the forehead -> the mindset. The mark on the hand - the way you act. A choice that you have to make "stay natural and with god or be digitalized and turn to over to the devil" is the simple and religious expression of "the mark of the beast" but it goes far beyond that simple christian belief system. But it is indeed a VERY sinful act.
No sages bro it was JESUS CHRIST THAT FORTOLD THIS AS WELL AS THE PHROPHETS DANIEL ISAIAH AND OTHERS. THE MARK IS SPIRITUAL AND COULD BE PHYSICAL BUT THE SYSTEM OF CONTROL IS ALREADY UNDERWAY. SOON COVID IDS WILL BE LINKED TO A SOCIAL SCORE.
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor to recieve a mark in their right hand or forehead, none might buy or sell without that mark
It's possible this will be some kind of invisible digital tattoo.
Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior
@@budekins542 yep, like an invisible tatoo that everybody gets when they are born.
@Tim Amen!
That’s just stupid . China seems like a great place to easily be overcome . By the government.
I rather starve to death. you'll never get me never control me
We already are we just don’t know it. For example. When you go to the super market. YOU ALWAYS ENTER TO THE RIGHT. VEGGIES AT THE RIGHT EGGS AND MILK AT THE LEFT END OF SUPERMARKET. MEDIA CONTROL US AND EVERYTHING YOU WEAR YOU BOUGHT BY BEING MANIPULATED. Religion yes also manipulated. Etc
Paid shill?
@@chrisolga3 Wait, you have watch this video and you still miss the messages from the book of revelation. Do you remember mark of the beast 666? Jesus warned us when you see this end signs like in this video then we know the end has come. Wake up bro and repent to Jesus
@@andreashansson2454 I believe in a creator and respect all religions but everything is fabricated the inquisition was an atrocity and still is. Everywhere where the United States goes they most become Christian’s because you have to follow what we say is right. Most people have no clue about Constantino and the creation Of Christianity and the bible.. Galileo was sent to home incarceration until he die because he disagreed with the Catholic Church... Now the pope says Galileo was right and the church was wrong...
in this spiritual journey, there is no true death! transition from biology back to natural eternal state. but, comply to this and you will belong to the greed that has used science to gain ultimate control.
That's crazy, this is another thing the conspiracy theories got right XD.
Considering the credit score system in China it must be scary when the government doesn't like you :v
Stop spewing BS propaganda, there's no social credit in China.
@@jzvr5842 I'm pretty sure we are talking about different things, what do you think when you hear "social credit". You see, I want to get into it rather than dismissing it saying "you don't know anything" haha
there is no credit score in China thats literally made up garbage by the west
Evil
Bruh we enjoyed it and basically no one will care cuz everywhere in internet will track u anyways
Just a matter of time,before,this becomes mandatory,across the globe.
So you've been keeping your face hidden and private all this time?
This is a mark of the beast stuff
You are correct but for that to happen will need a crisis that will make 9/11, the great tsunami of 2004 and the Corona pandemic look like peanuts.
@@budekins542
It's going on now=
racial riots. Buying food with facial recognition is new world order.
You are definitely correct to be scared. This will be mandatory at some point. Read the book of Revelation. The Antichrist will cause everybody to get a mark in their right hand or forehead. This is just a precursor to is yet to come. This is desensitizing and conditioning people to get used to getting their forehead and hands scanned.
I didnt see anyone fighting or twerking in the background, they all seemed very civilized.
haha good point but are they happy?
@@zeej8801 yes
Of course not. And that's half of the problem. Dying with no Savior is their tragedy.
Look up: "Korean Girl's Paintings of Hell".
they seem pretty programmed
However, China has not refused to use cash. For example, I only use QR code payment until now. I have never used facial recognition payment because I have no confidence in my appearance. Cash, QR code scanning, and facial recognition are all done by private companies. , Not mandatory，It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it, I’m just describing the facts
So you still pay cash?

Oh God. ..

Is that really true? Curious to hear more if you're open to sharing!
Same here
John Spartan you've been fined one credit for violation...
COOL AND CREEPY TECHNOLOGY! LOL IT REMINDS ME SO MUCH OF BLACK MIRROR!
That's cool but also scary
So if I make face mask like Tom cruise does in mission impossible I will be able to buy anything in China by making replica of Alibaba founder 🤣
Doubt it would be so simple ...what about after?? ...they would find out then they would the transaction and catch you , remember this is a cashless society practically ...all transactions are traceable ...they can swipe your money away at a click of a button.
If you don't do anything wrong you have nothing to fear...except if you're Muslim!
You're delusional
technology! maybe I'll see that next time I'm back
Prince is soooo right😈!
anybody notice they used an XBox camera to do this in a store? wonder if they already have a database of our kids faces from their bedrooms.
they? you mean most of big tech companies? obviously yes
One solar flare and folks like me are in charge
Book of revelation.. Mark of the beast.. Nothing can stop it. It will happen. But god will destroy it all.... As it is written...
@Master Of puppets Yes he does,look around the at whats happening all of this is prophecy,the illuminati try to hide God's existence.
This is fucking scary,
This will be in America soon. NO PRIVACY!!!
banks in America don't like this...their business model dies.
That good then!!!
Actually there the one promoting this.
It's about property not money
That's fucked up
Bro it’s like everywhere you go you being watched. That not human we need public private.
America we have to stop this !!!
Mastercard going to do this....
Buy 1 gave 1
No? No! Just no.

China has an appalling human rights abuses across anywhere in the world as we have witnessed in last decades or so and now they are implementing this monstrosity of a nightmare so called 'facial recognition' is really an enormous blowback to advancing classical liberal ideology, freedom of speech, freedom of press and freedom of religion. This system of absolute total control on privacy and human dignity will forever be tarnished and very much irreversible. And a quote from Thomas Jefferson which really highlights it all, he said and I quote: 'I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.' Slowly but surely, they will tell you, what to eat, how to dress and everything else and you have no say to whatever the government says you must do. A backward mirror of Mao's cultural revolution and great leap forward. Facial recognition is a modern form of slavery, once they get you comply to it there is no turning back.
"they will tell you, what to eat, how to dress and everything else and you have no say to whatever the government says you must do" are you blind. Didn't you watch RUclips? Or just being brainwash already. Or perhaps you are a kind of person spreading hoax.
Look at all the comments from Chinese people defending it, not even realising how creepy it is. That's the scariest part, tbh.

Can I ask...why?
Zee Butler so the gov can track everything u do and everything u have, this just takes the load off their AI system that does this already to everyone
For ppl that r lazy
To rule the souls! :D
@@Bb-jm2xl And anywhere you go.
Zee Butler Because IT IS AMAZING! You don’t know what you are missing. Getting onto the subway, getting an uber, ordering food on a machine or on your phone to get it faster in a restaurant, buying cinema tickets, sending yor friend money via chat. QR codes are the most amazing way ever to send and receive money. Way better than carrying a physical wallet that you can lose or get stolen. If your phone ets stolen someone would have to hack it before you get the phone blocked.
can't detect a virus
This is WRONG on so many levels, the first of which is that this is NOT what it means to be HUMAN. Ca$h-transactions are necessary to ensure normal, everyday, Human INTERACTION with each-other. I weep for the future of this...human...'race' towards...whatever the hell it is 'racing' towards. Geez-louise, you younger-folks who think this is the neatest thing...I just don't understand you at all. What's the problem with handing coin or paper-currency over to make a purchase ? Is that REALLY 'Too much like Work' for you ? are you THAT scared or petrified of picking-up a virus from handling currency for the few seconds-worth it's in your hand ? How PATHETIC of you ! !

Dont do it it's not good
I would really like to see these advancements become more commonplace in America but I also fear the loss of privacy to the gov’t or corporations. It’s a really complicated subject
Nova Kindor your face will be the mark of the beast
Not complicated at all. Seek Jesus Christ. Everything other than Jesus is pointless.
Government: From now on, everyone will carry a tracking device at all times, provide all details of their life, have an always on microphone in their homes and cameras will be installed everywhere to record people's faces.
People: This is an outrage! We won't stand for this fascism!
Companies: Here's your iPhone, Facebook, voice-controlled TV, and now you can use your face to buy stuff in stores.
People: Sweet! Gimme! Gimme!
This is the mark of the beast stuff. In China they are already scanning people's forehead or the wrist and without that they cannot buy or sell anything.
Just like the bible says.
It harms people soul forever.
This violates the constitution and our human rights
666 🙏🏻💥 mark of the beast!
That is u with no privacy lol
Remember when everyone was afraid of the internet when it was new even some today dont know it's full use
The internet collects your info,viewing,transactions.
666
666 means "cool" in chinese.
Why can't we enjoy this type of life in America?
Because that life style sucks.
Because us Americans are very sensitive of our privacy while people in Asia don’t care much about it because their privacy is already exposed.
Beep Boop What are you talking about? In the west EVERYONE EXPOSES THEIR LRIVATE LFE VIA FB! In China you are less likely to get stalked online cause only your friends see your postsnon wechat and only friends of friends can see comments of mutuel friends on a post.
Western people just have a superiority complex while living technology wise in stoneage
I remmeber how my mum used to be scared of cable less housephomes back in end of 90‘s or beginning of 20‘ lol 😂
Don't worry the beast system is coming to America
@Akmal Ahmad NSA laughing
This is quite amazing.
This is the beats systaem and its fucked
Total lost of freedom, privacy and security is amazing? What will happen to the data you are providing by this way of paying?
It's not amazing. It's horrible,dystopian world,digital slavery,total control,surveillance and communism.It's absolutely evil.
But they look all the same
lmao
Awesome
Why? Control? Yup. We dont need recommended new products. Geez. Allow people the freedom to THINK. You are forcing people to agree with you for fear of loosing income. Evil.

THIS IS HORRIBLE. Looks like it's only a matter of time if you choose not to have the vaccine the door will not open for your face .NO FOOD FOR YOU THIS IS DANGEROUS AS HE()L
As an American I personally think that if you don’t or haven’t done anything wrong then you shouldn’t worry about anything. Embrace the system and don’t fight the system. It’s a lot easier for you and everyone else.
This is why no one will remember your name.
as a women surveillance cameras make me feel safe.
How so? If a crime happens the response time is not immediate XD, a weapon on the other hand is as immediate as your hand can be :v
