Implications of face recognition systems in society (pro) http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel5/44/28491/01273467.pdf?arnumber=1273467
Implications of face recognition systems in society (pro) • This technology is just like monitoring a person’s location and actions through a combination of existing technologies such as credit card records, cell phones, and global positioning systems in automobiles • Except its through pictures • “Police are enthusiastic about the system, saying it is no different from an officer standing on a street corner with a criminal’s photograph in hand and checking out a passing crowd.

Implications of face recognition systems in society (con) • “privacy advocates have long worried that such biometrics software could be abused, leading to a surveillance society where people's every move is tracked” • (http://news.com.com/Tampa+drops+face-recognition+system/2100-1029_3-5066795.html)
Implications of face recognition systems in society (con’s) • This technology is a violation of the constitutional right to privacy. • Fourth Amendment right of all citizens to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. • Should approval from a judge be required in order to place a person’s image in the watch list, perhaps in a process similar to the requirement for a telephone wiretap? • Another potential concern is the wholesale archiving of images for possible later use. • The archive of images could then be “mined” in the future to find out if a certain person had been at the checkpoint in the past.

Tampa, Florida face recognition system • The Tampa Police Department in ditched a controversial facial-recognition system • Did not help catch even one criminal • System scanned faces in a crowd and compared them to photographs of criminals in a database
Concerns of Tampa officials • Critics warned that people could be falsely accused because of imprecise software that could misidentify people as criminals. • Barry Steinhardt, director of the technology and liberty program at the American Civil Liberties Union, said there has never been an instance of a facial-recognition system discovering a wanted criminal in the field in the United States.
Future of face recognition systems? • What do you think with regards to face recognition systems becoming integrated into society? • Good/bad….WHY?!??!?!
