Since the TSA doesn't ask to scan my face at foreign airports, I oppose the FRT where it's relevant and how its legally possible for me to do so. And while my opposition to FRT against travelers is global on principle too, my opposition sort of scales with the volume of my tax contributions to a jurisdiction and the relevance of a place as a global beacon in terms of values. So even if the UST/IRS were to zero-out all my future potential tax liabilities and return most of my prior contributions, I would still be opposing the TSA's FRT use.
