I rented a Penske truck which I’ve done for years, but this time they did not just verify my license at the rental place. I had to follow a link on my phone, photograph both sides of my drivers license, then had to take a selfie and send it to an ai to confirm it was me.
It wasn’t me.
The ai said so. The guys at the counter were all confused. “What do we do? It’s not him!”
Of course it was, they knew me. I suggested that we try again with the selfie, this time with an added twist; I took my eyeglasses off!
Whadda ya know! It was me all along! The old Clark Kent disguise worked! This tech is definitely ready for law enforcement.
Peter Thiel has everything sent straight to his laptop 😆
Kidding…
Well certainly it connected my face to my phone now with a digital scan of my face. I had avoided doing that scan shit to unlock my phone, and now it’s fuckin done. So lame

Good grief…and who does Penske share this information with?
