The United States is greatly expanding the use of a “biometric exit” program, whereby travelers have their photo taken on departure.
To be fair, the US was previously one of the only counties in the world that didn’t have any sort of exit passport control. This is finally joining the 20th century while ironically already doing facial recognition of everyone at the ID check stage to ENTER the airport, which was a totally separate system and unrelated to who does what and goes where. So then turbo-boosting it all to dystopian hellscape.
