Was just told I can't opt out of facial recognition for a flight out of the US

I wanna follow up with this:
* The Federal government has had my fingerprints and facial information since about November of 2024 (a requirement to be a federal contractor).
* Before that, NYS has had my fingerprints after being arrested for a misdemeanor (fucking jumping the turnstile) for over a decade (that made future detaining a lot easier 🙄)
My threat model to cedeing biometric information has been compromised for a while and despite that I try to minimize refining the model they have. Do not consent, you still have a choice.

Not only is it bullshit, when I showed him this: https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2017-Oct/biometric-exit-process-fact-sheet.pdf he apologized but then asked if I wanted to get off the plane. Laziness is dangerous under this administration and I hate that it was a brother too (hence why you can't just root for the tone)
I'm heading to Europe and dude tried to say it was a FAA requirement. Asked him to show me, he pulled me to the side and wanted to confirm my ticket (a waste of time).
Was forced to go with the facial recognition to board the plane.
