    In case you were wondering how they would get a picture of the users face…

    “DirecTV’s screensavers will let a user create an AI avatar of themself by scanning a QR code on the screensaver”

      Ok. But why would anyone actually do that?

      The only good that can come from this is butt faces.

      Thanks for this. I was imagining some dystopian requirement that you had to let them scan your face or pay an extra $10 a month or something.
