Давайте отменим статьи Конституции, что защищают нашу частную жизнь, сделаем стекло в домах, унитазы из стекла.
Правозащитница Алена Попова доводит ситуацию до абсурда и предлагает запретить умные камеры на улицах Москвы.
Мол, это вторжение в личную жизнь.
А как же безопасность?

This is how you kick facial recognition out of your town
Bans on the technology have mostly focused on law enforcement, but there’s a growing movement to get it out of school, parks, and private businesses too.

San Francisco is first US city to ban facial recognition
By Dave Lee
North America technology reporter
Legislators in San Francisco have voted to ban the use of facial recognition, the first US city to do so.
The emerging technology will not be allowed to be used by local agencies, such as the city’s transport authority, or law enforcement.
Additionally, any plans to buy any kind of new surveillance technology must now be approved by city administrators.

San Francisco just banned facial-recognition technology
Anchor Muted Background
By Rachel Metz, CNN Business
San Francisco (CNN Business)San Francisco, long one of the most tech-friendly and tech-savvy cities in the world, is now the first in the United States to prohibit its government from using facial-recognition technology.
The ban is part of a broader anti-surveillance ordinance that the city's Board of Supervisors approved on Tuesday. The ordinance, which outlaws the use of facial-recognition technology by police and other government departments, could also spur other local governments to take similar action. Eight of the board's 11 supervisors voted in favor of it; one voted against it, and two who support it were absent.

Beyond San Francisco, more cities are saying no to facial recognition
Anchor Muted Background
By Rachel Metz, CNN Business
Updated 2111 GMT (0511 HKT) July 17, 2019
San Francisco (CNN Business)San Francisco did it in May. Somerville, Massachusetts, in June. And on Tuesday evening, Oakland, California, became the latest to ban city departments — including police — from using facial-recognition technology.
As facial-recognition software becomes increasingly popular everywhere from airports to concerts to stores, concerns are on the rise about how well it works and the repercussions of when it fails. The technology identifies people from live or recorded video or still photos, typically by comparing their facial features with those in a database of faces (such as mugshots).
Yet while the technology could help with tasks ranging from solving crime to checking student attendance at school, it comes with fundamental privacy issues. Artificial intelligence researchers and civil rights groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union, are also worried about accuracy and bias in facial-recognition systems. They're concerned that they are not as effective at correctly recognizing people of color and women; one reason for this may be that images used to train the software may be disproportionately male and white. No federal guidelines exist to limit or standardize its use, and few state rules are in place, leaving municipalities to decide for themselves what, if anything, to do.

Amazon wins facial-recognition vote, but concerns about the tech aren't going away
By Rachel Metz, CNN Business
Updated 2034 GMT (0434 HKT) May 22, 2019
San Francisco (CNN Business)Hundreds of Amazon employees, groups of investors, and dozens of civil rights groups and academic researchers are upset that the online retailer is selling facial-recognition software to governments. Yet on Wednesday, Amazon shareholders rejected a proposal that asked the company to stop the practice.
The resolution requested Amazon's board stop selling its Rekognition software to governments unless a third-party evaluation determines the tool "does not cause or contribute to actual or potential violations of civil and human rights." Its failure was announced at the company's annual meeting in its hometown of Seattle, along with that of a similar proposal asking Amazon to enlist an outside group to study the risks of using Rekognition.
Amazon previously tried to prevent stockholders from considering the facial-recognition proposals, but the Securities and Exchange Commission said in April that it had to allow a vote.
