NY Mets Fans Cry Foul Over Facial Recognition - Event RSVP Form
Since 2021, Citi Field has offered "Mets Entry Express" lanes at the entrance of the stadium, a form of facial recognition ticketing for Mets fans. This tech is branded as "convenient," but don't let it fool you - facial recognition ticketing isn't safe, and has been proven time and time again to be unreliable and inaccurate. Mets fans want a fun and easy game-day experience – not one tainted by biometric surveillance! Join Fight for the Future, STOP, Encode Justice NY, and other friends on August 21 at Citi Field to tell the Mets and the MLB: Facial recognition endangers fans. It's time to bench ALL biometric surveillance tech at stadiums, and stand up for privacy. ** When: Wednesday, August 21 @ 12:00pm (right before the Mets' home game against the Orioles) ** Where: 36-2 Seaver Way, New York ** What to bring: Just yourself! We'll provide signs and banners. Then around 1:30pm we'll head to lunch (free for all participants) together in Flushing. Once you complete the form below, we'll be in touch with more details.
