Microsoft suggests responsible governance for facial recognition - TechHQ

Over the past few weeks, news about various state governments here in the US using facial recognition technology has caused concerns. Not only is it an invasion of privacy but also something that people feel will result in more racially biased profiling. Imagine what it enables government bodies to do when citizens are tracked, in real-time, following their private choices, actions, and behaviors. Some in the New York Police Department want access to the Department of Motor Vehicles database of driver's license photos as it expands facial recognition technology to such matters as identifying missing persons. But privacy advocates are crying foul.
