I was just reading about the mess with long lines and missed plane connections caused by the EU's new EES system that requires a photo and fingerprints to enter an EU country. The system is supposed to store both to match when you leave, but its facial recognition programs do not work well. People have reported being in line for hours at multiple EU airports.

I haven't been to Europe since this new system came into use, but I've had difficulty in the past with France's facial recognition software reading my passport photo and had to go through passport control with a human agent. I wonder if photos generated with US facial recognition software will be readable with different EU or other software. I wish I trusted this State Department more knowing how the Trump administration cuts corners and hires people for loyalty instead of competence.
