It starts with immigrants, and you are next.
Facial Recognition mistakes are dangerous, but its potential for abuse when working as intended is even scarier.
"Because of the immense power of facial recognition to target political enemies & indiscriminately deport any of us, & because the system’s racially biased inaccuracy is already causing wrongful arrests, banning facial recognition is an essential step toward preventing authoritarian overreach."

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
What ICE does is, excluding their decision to wear masks, unconstitutional.
Their right to hide their identity is protected explicitly by the Fourth Amendment, and so is mine, and yours, and everyone else's.
In this regard specifically, you're not going to beat them, so you might as well join them.
If you want to walk down the street while wearing a mask for some reason that has nothing to do with COVID, or simply to hide your face, or for no particular reason whatsoever, you sure can.
Your person includes your face.

"Asda secretly scanning customers' faces - Don’t shop there until you watch this..."
Data privacy experts are calling on the government to urgently tighten regulation around facial recognition technology, amid growing concerns over its unregulated use by police forces and private companies across the UK.
#Police secretly monitored #NewOrleans with #facialrecognition cameras
Following records requests from The Post, officials paused the first known, widespread live facial recognition program used by police in the #UnitedStates.

AI Experts Demand UK Action on Facial Recognition Governance

Racial profiling still rife across the EU, Council of Europe says http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TL2nRj #RacialProfiling #HumanRights #FacialRecognition #CouncilOfEurope #EU
An Ada Lovelace Institute report says the 'highly fragmented nature of biometrics governance makes it very difficult to know if police use of [facial recognition technology] is lawful';
And, the 'legislative void' identified by Privacy International means even if the Govt. claims the technology is subject to limitations mandated by human rights law, the police seem to be using it increasingly without regard for *any* limits;
Focussed regulation is needed!

"the Silicon Valley behemoth [#Facebook] has officially dusted off the effort and is once again working on transforming its #wearable smart glasses into a #facialrecognition-infused #privacy nightmare."
These guys won't learn until the nightmare encroaches upon them. The #sousveillance nightmare might be whats needed to get them to back off at this stage, but that contains its own horrors (e.g. the #OpenAi acquisition of Jony Ive's "io")
Racial profiling is still rife across the EU, the Council of Europe says.
Law enforcement officials across Europe continue to use racial profiling, the Council of Europe's human rights monitoring body (ECRI) has warned.
New technologies such as facial recognition could worsen the problem, experts have suggested.

Live #FacialRecognition cameras may become ‘commonplace’ as police use soars
The expansion comes despite #facial #recognition failing to be referenced in any act of parliament.
Campaigners claim the #police have been allowed to “self regulate” their use of the technology.
Officers have in the past used a setting that was subsequently shown to disproportionately misidentify black people.
