photography being accurate depiction? oh, no, we can't have that.
how about an automated "ugly filter" to remove the faces of those you deem to have come up short on looks, too? " They say cameras add ten pounds " the advertising blurb says. so who the **** are the "they" in this shallow-minded planet of idiots who say that? quite aside from the body fascism that it promotes, that's a downright insult to every one of us who care about our photography.
and what the hell is "wrong" with the models depicted in the little video trailer advert? Neither need nor deserve a digital edit.
Someone should sabotage the prototype so that it actually fattens folk, instead of slims them.
I mean, what the HELL is the purpose of such technology? To fool yourself into believing you're slimmer than you are? Or to fool other peope into thinking your slimmer than you are? What's the point?
