    Both violent and petty crime is at the lowest point in the history of humanity. At the same time, criminals at number 10 are swapping in and out and getting away with every single thing. How is giving them control of AI facial recognition surveillance supposed to stop them??

      Are you more worried by American corps “gathering data” rather than the potential for actual, physical misuse of data in the UK? What are the corpos gonna do, advertise to you?

        I’m worried about both, but given the execution of people in the US right now, that seems the most worrisome fallout given Farage could be the next PM

          Palantir supplying ICE leads to the direct harm of ICE busting down your door and shooting you ten times in the back out of self-defence. That’s not just corps “gathering data” that’s law enforcement committing abuse. In the same way, if we in the UK give the police facial recognition technology it could be used to commit abuse.

          That’s a far greater potential for harm than just “oh no, details of my face are on Google’s servers”.

    The UK government won’t stop until every man, woman, and child has a camera pointed at them from bathrooms to bedrooms, 24/7.
