The State of Tennessee is now publicly outsourcing it's drivers license making to Washington and using facial recognition software on YOU.
“This new system, central issuance, is replacing an outdated system that is more than 30 years old,” Dalya J. Qualls, spokeswoman for the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security said via email.
“We will begin using facial verification technology to help reduce fraudulent issuance of driver’s licenses and cut down on identity crimes cases.” she wrote.
“The state first purchased three kiosks to use on a pilot basis using federal grant funds for a total of $165,000,” Qualls wrote. “The remaining 37 kiosks were purchased for $45,000 each, a total of $1,665,000, using state system development funds.”
Drivers renewing their licenses, who previously would wait on-site for a permanent license from a driver service center the same day, now will walk out with a 20-day temporary license on paper. Meanwhile the person’s information is logged and a permanent ID is stamped and mailed from a factory in Lacey, Wash.
How is this an improvement? This is going back 50 yrs. The only reason they are doing this is to put Your face into a database. Yes my friends your photo and I guarandamntee you the price will go up. Do Not Use these machines!
“The person’s driver’s license photo will now be sent to a central state database that contains at least 12 million other photos for a match,” Qualls wrote. Such a database would help make sure the person on your state-issued ID is indeed you, according to Qualls.
They don't state the fact your image will be used to see if you closely resemble a Criminal so, they can see if they can convict you because you resemble a criminal! Don't believe me? Wait till your arrested.
