  1. This is to protect rioters from being identified by virtue of them being in livestreams or other posted videos.

    But you’re right, it will only be used for the purposes of deplatforming conservatives.

    1. That was my immediate thought. I guess filming in public is no go for anyone now too and and that will be applied evenly and fairly /sarc

  2. Yeah, that’s the way I interpreted it. No faces without model release forms, just like publishing film photographs in the old days.

    Since what I post tends to be just something around my shop, and not even my face appears on camera, I didn’t pay it any mind but it really seems like what all three prior comments say.

  3. I don’t know. The way I read that rule is that you can’t use facial recognition software to identify people on videos. The wording doesn’t suggest to me a prohibition of recognizable faces.

Only one rule: Don't be a dick.
