This comment reinforces the OP's point: opponents of facial recognition seem to approach the world with a particular value system that includes a disagreement with several existing laws. Instead of working to get these laws changed, facial recognition opponents advocate bans on technology that would maken these laws easier to enforce. Why should they succeed?
> No street art
Good. Graffiti is a blight.
> No protesting
There's protesting and there's "protesting". Lawful protest will be unaffected. Unlawful protest involving criminal behavior will become much more difficult. Good outcome.
> No way to break away from the stigmas assigned you your face
In an age of background checks, your face is the least of your worries. Are you opposed to background checks?
> No speeding
Speed cameras already exist and don't rely on facial recognition to issue tickets
> No jaywalking > No pissing outside > No way to rebel
Why should people get to break the law?
