Arizona's Schools Installing Statewide Face Recognition System
AZ is installing face recognition software at all its public schools. The system will scan teachers, visitors, parents, and students using video cameras placed throughout the campuses. Databases will be searching for Sex Predators, felons and children reported kidnapped, abducting by non-custodial parents, and reported as missing from across the US.
The computer automatically alerts police to matches.
They're claiming if you don't match your image will be discarded and not stored on the system for future matching.
This brings up some serious privacy issues. And hope to hell you don't look like anyone that's wanted.
