Journalists stopped short by their own mug-shots April 18, 2023 in Meghalaya,
Hi-tech surveillance technology debuted today into this hill state with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) issued to tag every delegate and visitor including media persons entering the premises of Hotel Courtyard Marriott, here for the two-day Space Economy Leaders Meeting (SELM) precursor event.
Journalists were the first to come uncomfortably face to face with impact of RFID tracking when some of them nonchalantly wandering around the venue in the course of their work, found themselves stopped short by their own mug-shots, name and designation, suddenly appearing on a big monitoring screen at the entrance of the conference hall of the G20 meet, with the legend in bold caps, “NOT ALLOWED” under the photo...the press had already been instructed that they are permitted to enter the conference hall only to cover the inaugural session. They do not have permission to cover the technical session of the meeting...However reporters being reporters, it is routine for them to loiter around the main venue, even if they are not allowed inside, to catch any delegates for a quick comment and/or seek interviews.
