I have mixed feelings. As someone mentored by a 40 year industry veteran I know that bouncers also crossed the line regularly. I wish I could prescribe a middle ground but I don't how one would define that.
too complicated
It's not scaleable.
Imagine trying to rely on that system in a club of >500 patrons with 15 security guards and 2 entrances?
Imagine waiting in line to get in while they check every single face against a wall of 100+ photos
Also at what point is this trouble maker going to sit nicely so I can get a recognizable photo in a dark room with smoke strobe lights?
Lets say I ban a guy mid-shift. How do I communicate that to the rest of the security team? Leave my door to show everyone the photo? Have everyone else leave their post to check the wall?
What you're saying works, it just doesn't scale.
It's very much people wanting to have their cake and eat it to. People want trouble makers to see justice, but we also don't want to live in a society ruled by violence.
What most Gen-Z and younger folk don't know is that before cameras were everywhere, trouble makers were taught violently who would not tolerate their trouble makery.
But now trouble makers only answer to the cameras that can prove them guilty in a court of law. Hence why alcohol venues are logging ID's. Because insurance companies are tired of paying out lawsuits, and government regulators are tired of alcohol venues getting people drunk and causing problems.
industrialized religion
AKA literally what Jesus was preaching against.

I think you're pretty on point.
EoD the subscriptions aren't generating an ROI. I could see companies justifying losses in the 1st year and not accepting it will never be viable until after 2 fiscal years is the red.
I'll never forget how my trust fund baby ex-friend gleefully described himself as a savvy investor for putting stocks into oil and gas.
They don't know that they have no clue.
Rich people will instinctively drag us under like a panicked person drowning.
Cool. Yea I don't know what kind of game I wanna make, but the idea of playing around with a popular engine sounds fun.
stupidest son of a bitch on the planet
It's not like he's trying to convince anyone that isn't categorically a runner up in the same contest.
Do you need a good computer?
Meanwhile right wing internet would be distributing khakis and trudgens.
Lets not forget some of them are creeps touching women on the dance floor. Those are the fucking worst cuz they always play the victim card when women retaliate. From a venue perspective you have to do something about them. Cuz if women don't feel safe at your venue you are 100% going out of business.
I worked at a venue where multiple bars nearby shared their patronscan ban list cuz we were having problem guys leaving one bar and starting problems in the next one. But not enough to get them arrested.
