🚨YOUR passport photo has secretly been turned into a facial recognition police mugshot - putting everyone's privacy at risk.

πŸ“’ We can announce today that we're set to pursue legal action against the Home Office & Met Police alongside @privacyint.

READ | telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/…Image
πŸ’₯NEW: We’ve obtained freshΒ documents that reveal the number of facial recognition searches of the passport database SURGED from just 2 in 2020 to 417 in 2023.

This means that the Government is allowing police to search over 58 million photographs.

Nobody signed up for this.
"This astonishing revelation shows both our privacy and democracy are at risk from secretive AI policing, and that members of the public are now subject to the inevitable risk of misidentifications and injustice.

Police officers can secretly take photos from protests, social media, or indeed anywhere and seek to identify members of the public without suspecting us of having committed any crime.

This is an historic breach of the right to privacy in Britain that must end. We’ve taken this legal action to defend the rights of tens of millions of innocent people in Britain" - @silkiecarlo

🚨 BREAKING 🚨

Iceland's rollout of facial recognition is chilling ❄️

Thousands of people will have their privacy rights violated just to buy basic necessities, and Iceland will turn its shoppers into suspects, making them submit to a biometric identity check as part of their daily lives.

Just last week we saw @Facewatch embroiled in a scandal when its dystopian tech was used to falsely accuse a woman of shoplifting, and throw her out of the store.

@icelandrichard should abandon this rollout and put its customers' privacy first, and the government must act to rein in the uncheck expansion of this intrusive technology.

#StopIcelandSpyingImage of Iceland store, with text that reads Iceland to begin scanning customers' faces using live facial recognition
The technology is provided by @Facewatch, a company whose system was linked to the wrongful accusation and ejection of a mum from a Home Bargains store earlier this month

theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/j…
@Facewatch Facewatch has also been investigated by the UK data watchdog, the Information Commissioner, who concluded last year that the firm had breached data protection laws on 8 different counts.

β€œThe #Horizon scandal is a very recent reminder of how computer systems don’t always get it right”

@Helen_Whately brings up the Horizon scandal & questions how much the plans will cost banks. However, she says Conservative Party is broadly in favour of the intrusive powers as a continuation of their own policies.
"Last June an AI algorithm, incorrectly identified people that were potentially behaving fraudulently"

@Debbie_abrahams brings up similar recent examples of the dangers these powers pose, adding "that is really serious"

πŸ”΄11 years ago, @β€ŒSnowden blew the whistle on mass surveillance.

UK intelligence agency GCHQ had spied on millions of Britons - with aid from the US National Security Agency

What surveillance operations did Snowden expose & where do we stand today? 🧡 Graphic of Edward Snowden

Britain's intelligence headquarters intercepted & stored webcam images from Yahoo chats of millions of users to trial automated searches using facial recognition. Image

Shops across the UK are also using facial recognition to spy on customers

This generalised mass surveillance of the population is reversing the presumption of innocence Image
