I can't, why is this even a requirement? Are they worried about a Google Glass like thing?

Why not have an electrified anal plug inserted that they can zap if you look away from the test while we're at it?

This shit is crazy.

My guess would be so their algorithm can ID my face. Same reason I can't wear glasses in my passport photo.
