So I guess with my anxiety disorder even computers will think “I have something to hide” because I look nervous. Jesus christ this world is a dystopia.

Anxiety disorder, bipolar, and more will definitely help paint targets on you. I'm really not liking this brave new world we're heading into. This tech will only be as smart as the lowest bidder makes it and frankly that should terrify anyone with family who don't fit a stereotype defined as "normal". I have family that would need protection from something like this.

If it makes you feel any better, before computers it was the security guards that thought you had something to hide instead.

However, we tend to see a computer’s analysis as absolute while a security guard’s analysis is more of an opinion.

You can also reason with a security guard. The trust we have in the computer’s analysis prevents a perceived shoplifter from reasoning against the accusation, for better or worse.

The difference is that security guards did not recorded each and every customer and built a database of people visited any store in any country and also not going to sell that database to the highest bidder and not going to hacked be by state backed groups.

If there were security guards sure. That's not exactly a given.
