Verification History

AI Verified ai_verified: On Richard Stallman’s official page “2020: May - August Political Notes,” the 29 June 2020 entry “Urgent: Prohibit face recognition” says, “Here is the message I sent,” followed by the full sentence containing your excerpt; the omitted words are “or any biometrics that enable recognition of individuals in general,” so the quote is a faithful ellipsis and is correctly attributed to Stallman.
