On Facial Recognition, the U.S. Isn’t China—Yet

As protests grow, the police leverage their technological advantage. Widespread surveillance cameras capture the crowds, and facial recognition software picks out individuals, cross-referencing databases to generate dossiers on protestors. Demonstrators counter by cutting down lamp posts that might conceal cameras. Across the country, 3,000 miles away, biometric systems monitor everyday people as they go about their lives. These tools enable police to control a population and detain suspects before they even commit a crime.

How is facial recognition being deployed by law enforcement, and why should we worry?

Reporting from BuzzFeed revealed that the Minneapolis Police Department is one among hundreds of law enforcement agencies—along with thousands of private entities—using the services of Clearview AI.
