I attempted to opt out of airport facial recognition returning from Colombia in March 2019, but was denied at several levels and ultimately forced to take a picture or otherwise remain with the police until I surrendered my photo. It was such bullshit, but they would not let me back into the US without giving them my photo.

This was Spirit airlines in Washington DC.

Just for context, are you a citizen of the US?
