Facial recognition technology uses software to identify individuals based on their facial features, and can be used to monitor public spaces and enhance security measures. Proponents argue that it enhances public safety by identifying and preventing potential threats, and helps in locating missing persons and criminals. Opponents argue that it infringes on privacy rights, can lead to misuse and discrimination, and raises significant ethical and civil liberties concerns.

Yes, In certain high-risk situations or extremely high populated events but not in normal everyday life/activities
@9N429PW6mos6MO
Yes - Provided it is only used for individuals who are wanted by law enforcement and data for any other individuals is not kept.
@9MRMXSS6mos6MO
As long as it's only for that and not being used an an invasion of privacy. For example, use it to locate missing persons or wanted criminals.
@9Q2FM4V5mos5MO
Yes, if additional laws are set in place and enforced so it cannot be misused/ used for any other purposes than evidence of criminal behaviour, searching for wanted criminals, searching for missing persons. Etc.
@9ZKDB571wk1W
Personally I think it'd be a wasted effort with how fast technology is evolving, meaning that the facial recognition tech could be hacked.
@9YKFTTM2wks2W
To be fair, I believe that this is hard to answer as most people (including me) would not be happy with their faces being monitored constantly but on the other hand, it would indeed be incredibly useful to capture criminals and the like.
@9YG4DW42wks2W
Yes but only when proven to work 99.999% of the time or higher as right now it is inherently racist due to the samples used
@9Y69Q892wks2W
Only for known and dangerous criminals, but it isnt public info and is only used when a crime has been committed
