Veena Dubal makes a great point in "SF Was Right to Ban Facial Recognition":

"Even in an imaginary future where algorithmic discrimination does not exist, facial recognition software simply cannot de-bias the practice and impact of state surveillance."

1/ Today, @ClareAngelyn and @GeorgetownCPT release two new reports on abuse of face recognition and #facesurveillance.

In the first, thanks to years of litigation and FOIAs of NYPD, we expose blatant misuse of face recognition by the nation’s most sophisticated police force.
2/ We've long expected police to buy city-wide real-time #facesurveillance systems.

Our second report shows that 2 major U.S. cities (Chicago & Detroit) now own real-time face scanning systems. In Detroit, cameras are posted at schools and health clinics
3/ What @ClareAngelyn found, plus the race & gender bias exposed by @jovialjoy, @timnitGebru, @ACLU_NorCal and the mistaken ID of a student as a terror suspect, changed our views on #facesurveillance. We now join calls for a moratorium on face recognition. nytimes.com/2019/05/16/opi…
