So, who is providing the software? Because that's who is paying to get a unique data set of face images. Specifically Brazilian faces of people who either self-indentify as hung over or want to try to game the system for a discount. I'll let you guess which population is going to be bigger.

Taking advantage of inebriated people to hand over their biometrics, not even for a free burger, but a discounted burger.

Formerly inebriated people.

A free burger would make for a very expensive data set methinks.
