Comment on Stadiums Are Embracing Face Recognition. Privacy Advocates Say They Should Stick to Sports

That’s the only thing I can control, so I do.
You seem upset that I pointed any of this out. Not sure why. I was a rabid baseball fan growing up and was fortunate enough to have both American and National League teams to go watch. I could afford to attend several games each year by mowing lawns as a teenager.
Today, with considerably more income, it’s more financially difficult to attend a game than it was when I was a ragtag odd job teenager.

I misread tone on the upset part then. All due apologies for that one.
