    Amazon pitched its facial recognition technology to law enforcement. More than 2 dozen civil rights organizations are asking it to stop.https://nyti.ms/2IBpxid

        This violates a person's right to be free against unreasonable search and seizure. This technology could potentially be hacked by international agencies to identify and track individuals without them #knowing, the software is useful however may exploit many.

        I don’t need anyone breathing down my neck either which they wouldn’t be as I don’t have to worry as I ain’t doin nothing wrong. They are looking to breath down the necks of criminals, sex offenders & terrorists to name but a few to protect decent ppl

        The cops have a long-standing history of harassing civil rights activists. The FBI literally tried to blackmail MLK. That's just because he was highly visible. Do you honestly think them having a list of everybody who goes to protests is a good thing?

        If you get pulled over or stopped by the cops chances are they'll find out who you are. But the downside is I would hope that they can't just ID anyone on the street.
