The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will soon require taxpayers to submit a scan of their face in order to access certain features and tax records.

The change, first reported on by Krebs on Security, will force users to sign into the IRS website through an account with third-party firm ID.me, and provide a government identification document with their photo alongside a selfie to verify their identity, according to the IRS website.

The IRS first announced its partnership with ID.me in November, arguing the arrangement would “improve accessibility” and security for users.

Geez. Guess I'll get right on that. Right after CONvid/SHAMdemic booster #5. How about we wait until they contact us and we demand facial recognition before we talk to them? Oh, NOT a two way street.

Communicating with the IRS is a pain in the neck. If this makes the hoops you have to jump through easier…that’s fine.

At least there will be a face attached to all the illegals claiming phony child tax credits when Trump gets into office in 2024.

Oh don’t you worry.

The government has lots of ways to make things “easier” for you.

If the fascists are allowed to implement this, in 2 years you will find it implemented in all agencies of the government.

The IRS’ decision to adopt facial recognition technology has worried privacy advocates, who argue the collection of biometric data could enable widespread surveillance.

****************

How many other government agencies will get access to this data? Probably most of them.

There is no limit to what Big Brother wants to know about you. Chip implants are coming.

Somebody needs to follow the trail and the money on this third-party firm ID.me and see where it leads.

Anybody want to make a bet it is to someone elected?
