weve even worked with three-letter agencies on technology that can capture 30-plus feet away. In certain spaces, eventually, youll be able to have maybe one sensor the size of a dime, in the ceiling, and it would acquire all of our irises in motion, at a distance, hundredsprobably thousands as computer power continues to increaseat a time.
If youve been convicted of a crime, in essence, this will act as a digital scarlet letter. If youre a known shoplifter, for example, you wont be able to go into a store without being flagged. For others, boarding a plane will be impossible.
. . .
Right now, we can determine how many eyeballs are on a Web page. And what you look at and click. For the first time, we can do that in a physical world. If you look at this or that advertisement, and then go purchase the product advertised, we can tie those two things together.
When you get masses of people opting-in, opting out does not help. Opting out actually puts more of a flag on you than just being part of the system. We believe everyone will opt-in.
