🧵 The U.S. just funded AI that can ID you from ½ mile away just by the way you walk.
IARPA’s BRIAR program integrates your face, body, & even your walk to track you through drones & CCTV—day or night, even in crowds.
The tech is already being tested. No public oversight.

IARPA = Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity.
BRIAR = Biometric Recognition and Identification at Altitude and Range.
Think DARPA, but for the CIA/NSA.
Its mission? To create AI, biometrics, surveillance and data fusion systems to identify anyone, anywhere.

Experts warn BRIAR could bypass city/state facial recognition bans by target civilians using “whole-body” ID. Without oversight, it threatens privacy, freedom of movement, and normalizes predatory data collection.
Surveillance is now built into your every move.
