For reasons that boggle my mind, I am required to keep a Google account for work (ties into some proprietary software the company uses)
Earlier today, I got the following -


Yes, I’m certain people under the age of 16 are known for their use of very specific EHR software that requires professional license to subscribe to in the first place. Makes perfect sense.
Anyone else get one of these “for you protection” msgs from Big evil?


Ai generate an adult face, display it on a display, point camera at it, “selfie”, ???, profit
Scratch that. Draw a face. See if that works. I bet you could draw a face well enough to fool the detection software.
Oh for sure I could…but should I have to?
The whole thing is bass-ackwards.
I reckon I’ll just leave it and see what happens. If it shits itself - awesome. Business case then and there for ditching big Evil.
We don’t need this shit, no one asked us our opinion on using it, it just … “became a requirement to have a Google account” one day.
Oh absolutely not… yeah no, don’t comply with that by any means, and encourage everybody else not to, too. I’m all for good progress and love tech, but I love it in a "it should serve us way, not the other way around.
