# Schneier on Security

**[Schneier on Security](https://daily.dev/sources/schneier)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Madison Square Garden uses facial recognition on all visitors and flags activists who oppose the technology. The system was temporarily disabled for Taylor Swift's private wedding, highlighting a double standard: wealthy individuals can opt out of surveillance while ordinary people cannot. Activist Evan Greer notes the irony that Swift herself uses facial recognition at her concerts to identify stalkers, calling it a 'privacy for me, surveillance for thee' dynamic emblematic of a corporate surveillance society.
