I'm unclear about the rationale for banning facial recognition here (other than sour grapes about the technology preventing them personally from attending a concert). Are they arguing against the concept of looking for a particular human face on a video feed? Then it's completely illogical to ban automated ways of doing so and allow the old-fashioned eyeballs-on-screens method. In other words, the very concept of trying to identify someone in a crowd at an event ought to be illegal.
Or is it merely the effectiveness, brought about by facial recognition algorithms, that they object to? In other words, go ahead and have humans do it very ineffectively, that's somehow not against my rights, it's only when it actually works that it becomes a Violation Of My Human Rights. Not a great argument either.
