Monk's Clever Eyebrow Fix Enables Payment

A monk in Thailand overcame a welfare payment glitch when inventive store staff used black adhesive tape to create makeshift eyebrows, allowing a facial recognition system to verify his identity. The issue arose because the system couldn't recognize the monk's eyebrow-less appearance, a result of Buddhist practices. Shared on Facebook, the clever fix quickly went viral, amassing nearly 8,000 reactions. Photos of the incident, showing the monk's temporarily taped eyebrows and staff laughing at the workaround, highlight the humorous yet serious challenges technology can pose for cultural practices.
