#LFR

2025-12-02

„Heiter weiter“, damit wir nicht erst in 134 Jahren Gleichberechtigung in Deutschland haben. Das ist die Prognose, wenn es wie bisher weitergeht. Knapp hundert geladene Gäste und ein Mann #männerquote feierten den 75. Geburtstag des #landesfrauenrat Schleswig-Holstein.

Zum 75. Geburtstag des #lfr ist die Bilanz nüchtern: die Durchschnittsfrau arbeitet heute 60 Stunde/Woche inkl. unbezahlter Care-Arbeit.

Live facial recognition (#LFR) was not used to police the #UniteTheKingdom rally in #London. No "intelligence basis" for it, #MetropolitanPolice Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley told #LondonPolicingBoard.
Rowley was challenged on the difference in approach at #NottingHillCarnival, when LFR was used.

Rowley reckoned that #Carnival was more dangerous than a #fascist #racist rally. 😡

Same, it seems, with the #DefendOurJuries protest. 😡

#MetPol needs new leaders. #Scary

Four paragraphs from the BBC News repot, quoting Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley:

"It's really important we're deploying it where there's an intelligence basis to do so," he told board members.

"That's one of the safeguards - that you're not using it as mass surveillance tool - you're using it in particular places where there is intelligence based to say this may actually make people safer."

Sir Mark added that although there may be a case for using the technology at future protests, it would need to be balanced with freedom of speech concerns, as it could have a "chilling effect".

"And the intelligence picture at the weekend - that we had before the event - didn't justify that," he added.

The UK's equality regulator has criticised the Metropolitan Police's use of live facial recognition technology (#LFR), saying the way it is being deployed is breaching #HumanRights law.

The UK government is moving forward with a wider rollout of live facial recognition (LFR) technology across seven police forces, prompting debate over privacy, legal safeguards, and ethical deployment.

#UKGovernment expands #police use of #FacialRecognition vans

by Kate Whannel, August 13, 2025

"More live facial recognition (#LFR) vans will be rolled out across seven police forces in England to locate suspects for crimes including sexual offences, violent assaults and homicides, the Home Office has announced.

"The forces will get access to 10 new vans equipped with cameras, which scan the faces of people walking past and check them against a list of wanted people.

"The government says the technology has been used in London to make 580 arrests in 12 months, including 52 registered sex offenders who breached their conditions.

"However, campaign group #BigBrotherWatch said the 'significant expansion of the #SurveillanceState' was 'alarming'.

"Live facial recognition was first used in #England and #Wales in 2017 during the Uefa Champions League final football match in Cardiff.

"Since then its use has largely been confined to #SouthWales, #London and #Essex including at a Beyoncé concert to scan for paedophiles and terrorists [like elderly Palestine Action activists!]

"The government is now funding 10 vans equipped with LFR to be shared between seven forces, approximately doubling the number of vehicles.

"The seven forces are Greater #Manchester, #WestYorkshire, #Bedfordshire, #Surrey, #Sussex, #ThamesValley and #Hampshire.

"The technology identifies people by taking measurements of facial features including the distance between the eyes and the length of the jawline and then comparing the data to to an existing watchlist.

"Each van will be staffed with a trained officer who checks the matches identified by the technology.

"Simultaneously, the government is holding a consultation on what safeguards are needed to "ensure transparency and public confidence", ahead of drawing up a new legal framework.

"Big Brother Watch is bringing a legal challenge against the #MetPolice's use of the technology, alongside #ShaunThompson, who was wrongly identified by an LFR camera.

#Rebecca Vincent, interim director of Big Brother Watch, said: 'Police have interpreted the absence of any legislative basis authorising the use of this intrusive technology as carte blanche to continue to roll it out unfettered, despite the fact that a crucial judicial review on the matter is pending.

" ;The #HomeOffice must scrap its plans to roll out further live facial recognition capacity until robust legislative safeguards are established.'

"Labour peer Baroness Chakrabarti told the BBC the technology was 'incredibly intrusive' and 'some would say this is yet another move towards a total #surveillance society'."

Astonishingly, I was awarded an 8% raise (!) at my 6-year performance review. Everything I can tell about my company's owner/founder/CEO suggests that he would like nothing more than to fire me as a cost-cutting measure--but apparently, I'm too useful to the *running of the actual business itself* not to be retained. (I handle a LOT of stuff for these folks.)

Anyway, the upshot is I may soon have money to support a couple more small creators! Who should I check out??

#兩邊走走|編輯推介|Big Brother is Watching You?|法理何在?英上議院質問警方擴展人臉辨識

倫敦市警察總長Mark Rowley,視察即時人臉識別 LFR(Live Facial Recognition )執行情況後,強調警方根據LFR提供資料,只會截停有危險性或被通緝的罪犯,不會干預其他公眾的活動。近年英格蘭和威爾斯多個不同警區,包括Cardiff、Essex等試行,將裝有監控鏡頭的警車,停泊在多人聚集嘅地方,鏡頭會掃描街上的人臉,再跟警方的監控名單作配對。

國會上議院司法及內政事務委員會的成員,去信內政大臣祁湛明(James Cleverly)對警方擴大LFR嘅使用表達強烈關注,要求嚴格限制和獨立監管LFR的運作和使用,委員會主席提出疑問:究竟LFR的使用有否法律基礎?想知雙方爭辯的理據為何,請收看EP83《兩邊走走》的編輯推介。

One to watch - the Lords Justice and Home Affairs Committee is launching a short investigation into the use of Live Facial Recognition (#LFR) by police, a follow up to their inquiry 'New technologies and the application of the law' (2022). It seems to comprise just one session tomorrow afternoon

Does anyone have recommendations for noise cancelling ear phones/buds/whatever that are comfortable to sleep in? I can't use those squishy foam ones because the cats steal them and could choke.

La SGDQ se termine 😢. Au moment où j'écris 2 239 704 $ collectés pour Médecins sans frontière. Faut dire que le système d'incentives est tellement bien rodé maintenant.

La SGDQ, c'est un peu mon Roland-Garros à moi, pendant une semaine tu rentres du boulot, tu lances Twitch, t'as toujours une run en cours à regarder. Mais à la différence de Roland-Garros, chaque run est une finale en soi.

Et un grand merci au French Restream pour le cast et l'ambiançage en français.

邊境地區的居民!

呆在家裡,不要反抗也不要害怕:我們不是你的敵人。 與普京的殭屍不同,我們不會接觸平民,也不會將他們用於我們自己的目的。 自由近了!
對於所有關注我們的人:很快所有的細節,保持聯繫。

Just been reading this article about #LFR deployments in the #UK. There are about 100 pages, and it details how accurate it is, where it's been used and some other stuff.
