Even NYPD officers are talking to reporters about the foreseeable issues with Clearview:
"It only takes one cop to put in his ex-girlfriend’s photo in there and see who she’s dating now...They’re playing with fire. It’s going to catch up to them.”

Cops misusing technology to stalk their exes, crushes, etc. is such a common practice that there's even a word for it: LOVEINT. apnews.com/699236946e3140…
Despite the NYPD trying to distance itself from the app, there is little keeping rogue officers from using the tool however they want. How many other spy tools did the NYPD "demo" but are still in the hands of officers?
Every up and coming surveillance vendor wants to claim they work with NYPD. As @carolineha_ and team reported, Clearview is already fudging its relationship with the NYPD as a marketing tactic. What incentive do they have to cut off access? buzzfeednews.com/article/ryanma…
@carolineha_ This is why we need front-end accountability for NYPD's use of surveillance tools. We shouldn't have to wait on the latest scandal or news scoop. The #POSTAct has the support of 34 co-sponsors, @NYCSpeakerCoJo it's time to pass the bill into law.
