We've had this in some pharmacies (of all places) here in Vienna since 2017. They claim it's all offline and used for ads only, but nobody really believes it. Bayer had also installed some in Germany, but stopped using them after backlash from privacy NGOs.

Incidentally, in the same year, a lot of facial recognition tech was installed in train stations and other places after the terror attacks in Europe...

Luckily all those stupid terrorists don't know that they can just stick a beard or mustaches. Or wear a baseball cap to cheat all these fancy facial recognition tech stuff.
