Supposed to be playing a video but instead it's showing some sort of media player interface.

“Only because of that official investigation did Canadians learn that ‘over 5 million nonconsenting Canadians’ were scanned into Cadillac Fairview's database”. Wow. This Wired article is contradictory. The spokesperson says: “an individual person cannot be identified using the technology in the machines. The technology acts as a motion sensor that detects faces, so the machine knows when to activate the purchasing interface” I suppose it’s possible that a sloppy developer would name an executable `Invenda.Vending.FacialRecognitionApp.exe` which merely senses the presence of a face. But it seems like a baldfaced lie when you consider that: “Invenda sales brochures that promised ‘the machines are capable of sending estimated ages and genders’ of every person who used the machines—without ever requesting consent.” Boycott Mars --- I already boycott Mars because they are a GMA member and they spent ~$500k lobbying against #GMO labeling -- and they have been blackballed for using child slave labor -- and Mars supports Russia. This is another good reason to #boycottMars. Update --- Apparently a [LemmyBug](https://infosec.pub/post/8863199) replaced the article URL with a picture URL. The article is here: https://www.wired.com/story/facial-recognition-vending-machine-error-investigation/ The vending machine pic is here: https://infosec.pub/pictrs/image/2041d717-7cd7-4393-94f3-96aa87817aa7.jpeg

This exhibit has been in place for a while, I'm guessing they had to replace the computer for some reason.
