Cue your tinfoil hat, actually, don't. Getting kicked out of spots by security as they film us, scoffing at the CCTV cameras at empty schools pointed directly at our faces and ignoring them because who cares if you are on camera.
However, this has all changed with social media. Companies capable of instantly matching your face to a database of Instagram, Facebook, or scraped web images. Targetting the SPOT skater database for instance. We saw that one kid who ollied onto that fancy car get his identity revealed pretty quickly (then again he did post the footage on his own personal account).

Perhaps the Barrier Kult has been at the forefront of future masked street skateboard sessions.

Grind a ledge on private property and 2 days later get a ticket in the mail with a frame grab of you breaking the law.
Dystopic or future reality?

I was skating around town and one of those backflipping robots came outta nowhere and kicked my ass, so you're probably onto something.
-
That backflipping robot is the whitest white guy in the world don't be afraid of him
-
A spot I skate nightly has security cameras and I do worry about this happening. It is coming but from what I hear reliable facial recognition technology is still a few years out. If you have the time to kill this article talks a bit about the difficulty of using cctv to actually arrest someone:

before barrier kult there was sean young, the unknown asshole.
dude bombed some of the illest hills of the 90s and also had a picture bs flipping 3 up 3 down going the wrong way.
maybe skating in a balaclava or skank [bandana] over your face can be trendwatch 2018?
false moustache?
elven ears and dark glasses?
long bangs?

Those who would give up essential style, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither insta likes nor Safety.
also even if the tools were viable enough to be useful the amount implementing and utilizing the system would cost more than the amount of damage skateboarders would do to the property. it makes no economic sense.

Yeah, because every school has a dedicated skater detective that uses multiple sources to identify every skateboarder on their property. I mean, most school budgets can barely afford to hire nurses or librarians, and in the bay, most schools have a teacher shortage because they can’t compete when it comes to salaries, but they DEFINITELY spend extra money to hire people to look back over footage from an entire weekend, go over every individual they spot, and compare them to a universal facial recognition system.
Even if/when this becomes possible, I find it hard to believe any school will implement it. Most of those cameras aren’t even there for outsiders, they are there to catch students trying to ditch or fighting during recess.
You know there is already a way LAUSD could arrest hundreds of skaters based on this logic right? They could literally just do monthly visits to the Thrasher site, and see plenty of “evidence” with skater’s names right under them. They don’t.

There is a site anyone can use to match photos with faces on Russia's biggest social networking site, http://findface.ru/ . If you have a public profile on that site and you piss off someone who then snaps a photo of ya, you're vulnerable.
Just putting this out there as we are going to see more of these systems installed worldwide.

You're a goddamned idiot. You do realize that there already are security guards on private property, and that they virtually NEVER do anything but tell people to leave right? They could easily detain skaters and call the cops. They don't. They just chase us off property. These other places could hire security to work during off times that would cost as much as running a facial recognition system, which, by the way, would also have to track people down after they were identified, but they don't.
We are like rats or mosquitoes. They chase us away if we get in their space, but they don't track us down once we've been shoo'd away
You are smoking some seriously strong shit to believe this is a real issue.

Ronald, you're right. Security guards always just ask people to leave. They would never abuse their powers and attempt to detain a skater, take their board, or gain the skaters identification. They've also never written down license plate numbers and notified the local police with this information. Every encounter I've ever had with security has been the most peaceful and polite interaction and we were best friends as they happily shooed us skaters off.
Small towns with little crime to profit off of just love letting people off the hook for simple destruction of property charges because those fines, court fees, and government funding for locking people up just aren't worth their time.
Side note: I've had friends forced to go to court over surveillance camera footage of them skating on private property. It took the cops a few months to figure out who they were, but it's a real thing.

Ron's talking specifically about skateboarding in underfunded bay area schoolyards. He is a teacher you see

I like how Gip doesn't consider a future where the technology is advanced enough to do all of that stuff he claims requires man power on its own, at a fraction of the price it costs now or even free. He sounds like the old guys in that clip asking Zucc how he makes money off of Facebook even though it's free to join...

I used to pride my young child self on the fact that I somehow avoided every school "fingerprint register" day the local PD would put on. Then I got arrested in my later teen years and botched the whole thing.
fucking modern identification methods! Want my fucking pubes while we're at it?!?

It'll be like a sliding scale; if its expensive for them to effectively police individuals it would have to be a more 'serious' matter to bother with, BUT once it gets cheaper to do so that's when the 'micro' policing era will began. Yes you'll see that if it serves corporate interest. We'll all just have a permanent probe in our ass sending info to a data base.
-
Read all this an I'm not worried at all... Got no photos of me on worldwide web. Never been on Facebook or Instagram with my full name. Anything skating of me I use my nickname and sadly enough I'm in my mid 30's without a vehicle so nobodys gettin my liscense.
Yeah, if my bike gets recognized I'm fucked but don't think that'll happen.
Gipper has a point, schools don't have the funds for some dude to look over survellience footage unless something gnarly happpened.
Skatin in a ski mask sounds like a good idea too but from experience not the greatest thing when you're drunk riding around in public areas in daytime hours...

You'd need a court order to get personal info from license plates in California. It's funny when you see guards follow you and take down your plates. Everyone knows they're powerless.

I think any of these "threats" can be seen in plain sight if you're looking for them. This century has seen more technological change than all of human history before it. It's moving faster than regulation can react. Is it moving faster than ethics, faster than we can adapt?
Everyone seems to be getting dumber apart from the people writing the code. People falling off cliffs because they were trying to take a selfie and thinking it's important for everyone to watch them eat cereal on YouTube. So then the government obviously realizes these tools can be put to use, for better or worse.
The Edward Snowden quote just is becoming more and more relevant, "Arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say". Imagine sitting down at a table with an FBI agent who pulls out every google search you've ever done, CCTV footage of every street you crossed in the last 5 years, every Uber you ever took, everything you ate etc... I mean, it's happening already:

this is happening in a township just north of me. here's a quote from the article explaining how it works, for anyone who cares:
(would link the whole article but the website has a subscription block)
Police departments that work with Ring can tap into the Neighbors public feed. “Officers can chat directly with users on the Neighbors feed and get alerts when a homeowner posts a message from inside their watched jurisdiction,” Harwell wrote. “To seek out Ring video that has not been publicly shared, officers can use a special ‘Neighbors Portal’ map interface to designate a time range and local area, up to half a square mile wide, and get Ring to send an automated email to all users within that range, alongside a case number and message from police.”
So it’s not quite “unrestricted access.” But it has a wide potential reach, which we find concerning. Ring makes providing video to the authorities simple. And wouldn’t most of us reflexively want to help the police?
that last sentence ::)

They likely have more things that are not publicly known, but this is an interesting guide. The private camera access (Ring) opens up so many more digital eyes.

Just a little public service announcement the Skatepark of Tampa skater database was scraped and shows up in Pimeyes, a free facial recognition search tool accessible to anyone.
Edit: This is typically done without the content providers (SPOT in this case) permission, if it's on the internet, it's probably been swooped up in a scrape. Web scraping public content, for the most part, is legal. The issues typically arise in how that data is then used.

They don't have to agree for it to happen, which is the case for any website that hosts public facing content. Most aren't aware their data could be used, or is being used for profit by another company.

No consent is needed, they're just images in a public-facing database, accessed by an algorithm which sorted them into their own database.

They don't have to agree for it to happen, which is the case for any website that hosts public facing content. Most aren't aware their data could be used, or is being used for profit by another company.
Sorry, I’m a dumbass, Im really high right now and somehow got the idea they set up cameras inside the park.

That was I Level.
For a totally different reason.
In any case this fucking sucks.

My local police station has a form on their site you can fill out to give access to your cameras.
Fuck that.

THEY can also analyze your gait if you are wearing a mask. Not far off to imagine big data can analyzed your push and take your board away if your social credit score drops.

Don't forget tire track analysis. Change your wheels often pals.

Cue your tinfoil hat, actually, don't. Getting kicked out of spots by security as they film us, scoffing at the CCTV cameras at empty schools pointed directly at our faces and ignoring them because who cares if you are on camera.
However, this has all changed with social media. Companies capable of instantly matching your face to a database of Instagram, Facebook, or scraped web images. Targetting the SPOT skater database for instance. We saw that one kid who ollied onto that fancy car get his identity revealed pretty quickly (then again he did post the footage on his own personal account).

Perhaps the Barrier Kult has been at the forefront of future masked street skateboard sessions.

Grind a ledge on private property and 2 days later get a ticket in the mail with a frame grab of you breaking the law.
Dystopic or future reality?
Is the frame grab sick tho?

Looks like yuto was on to something with that balaclava huh?
-
It totally could happen, BUT…
I really think we are gonna fuck up this world so bad that by the time that technology it’s working “everywhere” we’ll be more worried about riots, poverty, diseases and wars than dudes skating the spot (if there’s still some spots to skate)
It’s been published that for 2050 the biggest cause of dead will be associated with bacterial resistance to meds. YES NUMBER ONE IN THE WORLD.

you cant go somewhere in england without being on a CCTV camera. thats how bad it is

They can just use all their cameras to make sure the infected don’t leave their houses and die alone in their own filth and don’t infect the rest of us. Problem solved!

I wear a half ski mask thing that goes up to my ears and covers my nose when it’s significantly below freezing and I love it. I want to only skate in a balaclava from now on

where did you read that? www.covidisahoax.com? It's a problem that some doctors prescribe antibiotics way too quickly, but it is not going to be that bad. New meds are constanly being developed. My brother has cystic fibrosis and has been on antibiotics for most of his life. When one of them has stopped working, they were always able to give him a different one that did work.

I heard somewhere that they started using artificial intelligence to design new antibiotics. So it comes up with these brand new molecules that actually work in the real world. It’s pretty insane.

Yes, British surveilance is crazy: Fuck those cynical sticker that say "smile you're on CCTV"! Has CCTV actually lowered crime rates?
In Germany we have a fairly strong data protection movement, which so far has been able to prevent some of the worst surveilance measures. However, secrect service agencies have access to almost all internet information anyways (even to private cameras, if they are connected to the internt) as Snowdon has shown. Luckily not much of it can be used in court right now.
I see a rise of surveilance technology and automatic policing in Europe, unless some serious measures are taken to reverse economic inequality. This has already happened in the US, where in the past decades the prison system has basicly replaced social welfare and public health care. There are 2.2 million Americans in prison/jail right now being closely watched for 24 hours (and they still manage to commit crimes!).
A credit score system and mass surveilance scares the shit out of me! What's fucked up, is that quite alot of young people seem to feel safe being closely controlled and even ask for more control and constant "optimization of their potential". There is still alot of talk about freedom, but I feel people don't even know what that is anymore. Many people seem seriously scared of not being technologically regualated or having a social framework for acceptable and unacceptable behavior. Sitting around, unwatched, bored and then consciously deciding on what to do for the afternoon is a luxery less and less people are able to experience.
Whatever, I am getting old.

Not quite. This is from an old study which showed huge amounts of cctv in London. Most of this is private CCTV though, and not the sort of big data centralised stuff you see in China.
-
It’s going to suck when the cctv records you then they send out armed robot dogs to make you stop or apprehend you.

We will all learn to adopt a public and private persona, both with assumed aliases, identifying information and physical appearance. In the public world, I am Terrance, gainfully employed tax-payer, rule follower and patriot. In private, I strap on a prosthetic chin and am Zao54, black hat anarchist hacker and mercenary, payable in Bitcoin or bricks of fentanyl.

This is true.
Also, you might want to invest in a clone of yourself (or several). Put each of you on all parts of the globe, confuse the hell out em’.
