I don’t see how it’s anymore dystopian than having to use an ID badge for everything, which I’ve done since I was 7. That identifies me and my school record followed me for like 12 years. I guess if you include the implications for selling data and whatnot it would be worse than an ID

I don’t see the issue that is solved by having facial recognition, the amount extra an outsider who snuck in would eat is negligible compared to the amount that any school large enough that they don’t recognise every student make. Only reason that you’d need an ID is if you’re paying for the food, and I was under the impression that free lunch was the norm in China.
