il y a plus de 10 ans de ça, Cory Doctorow aka @pluralistic (déjà lui !) ne disait pas autre chose, à propos de la censure du web, dans une nouvelle pour le MIT tech review.

C'est la même chose (en pire) avec la reconnaissance faciale par ia :
on.
ne.
peut.
pas.
automatiser.

ICE and CBP’s Face-Recognition App Can’t Actually Verify Who People Are

“Network filters are universally loathed. Duh. no one’s ever written a regular expression that can distinguish art from porn, and no one ever will. [..]

The web's got about 100 billion page on it; if you have a fail-rate of one-tenth of 1 percent, you'll overblock (or underblock, or both) 100,000,000 pages. That's several ‘Library of Congress’ worth of pointless censorship, or all the porn ever made, time 10, missed though underfilterring.
You'd be an idiot to even try.”

ICE and CBP’s Face-Recognition App Can’t Actually Verify Who People Are

ICE has used Mobile Fortify to identify immigrants and citizens alike over 100,000 times, by one estimate. It wasn't built to work like that—and only got approved after DHS abandoned its own privacy rules.

This is the most dystopian thing I've seen all week, and I'm living in 2026 America so that's *saying something*

AI companies will fail. We can salvage something from the wreckage | Cory Doctorow

AI is asbestos in the walls of our tech society, stuffed there by monopolists run amok. A serious fight against it must strike at its roots
