NYC grocers furious as city proposes ban on facial recognition technology used to deter theft
New York City grocers are expressing outrage over a push by city council members to ban facial recognition technology stores rely on to deter shoplifting due to concerns of racial discrimination. Ferreira Foodtown CEO Jason Ferreira joined "Fox & Friends" Tuesday to call out the suggestion as thefts continue to rock businesses in the Big Apple. Ferreira, who has been in business for over 45 years, said the shoplifting has never been worse. "It's not only people that are doing it professionally. We have people that are doing it just because they can get away with it. And the gamut runs from children to people that are older."
