We have:

1 some people complaining that EU will block innovation if it is not allowed to do face recognition on public places or without consent. This people want to "disrupt/innovate"

2 we have the theory that people will wear masks so facial recognition is impossible

So 1 and 2 can't happen at the same time, if the guys from 1 need to innovate then they need no masks , if 2 will happen then the guys from 1 are complaining for nothing because the virus fucked up their disruptive ideas.

Sorry if I was unclear before.

Yea it's a weird situation for sure. I would assume that any facial recognition attempt has taken a hit with masks being so prevalent.
