    Biometric data of individuals faces. Biggest buyer for that market would be law enforcement/government I’d expect.

      I imagine the vast majority of people have driver’s licenses, the government already has a picture of your face.

        Doesn’t need to be your government who’s buying. The picture on your license also doesn’t come with meta data about your whereabouts when you decide to go to something as simple as a sporting event.

          Yeah, that information would just be conveyed by the tickets you paid for with your name on them.

              So you said the government would buy it, so I pointed out that the government already has a facial picture of you. Your counterpoint is that it doesn’t have to be the government, in which case, why did you mention it. And then you said it’s because it would have meta data on your location, which is weird considering you would have bought tickets with your name on them through payment methods tied to your name. This isn’t some local high school game we’re talking about here.

          Locations and timelines, gait recordings, clothing… Advertisers will love to have that as well
