Disney World says it will stop photoshopping masks onto bare-faced park guests in its souvenir photos.
Yes, that’s a real thing – the Magic Kingdom has been adding digital ‘masks’ to guests’ faces in ride photos. But now Disney says the digital masks were just a “test run” and would no longer be added.

The park also made clear guests are still expected to wear a facemask at all times unless actively eating or drinking.

Why was Disney doing this – and why are they stopping now? Would you feel safe visiting a theme park right now?
