It's time for new laws that mandate how the government uses facial recognition technology, they say. Facial recognition systems can't be built or refined without massive sets of data — and the public is just learning about the ways researchers amass them. Last week, NBC News, in its efforts to create a large, diverse set of images to train facial recognition, scraped millions of photos from the photo sharing website Flickr.
They say because of racial inequities in the United States, these groups are more vulnerable to the ways that facial recognition could be abused to surveil or limit the civil liberties of these groups. The op-ed also said that images are drawn from documentation of people boarding aircrafts, but Huergo said those images were taken from a simulation that DHS ran of people boarding aircrafts in a warehouse.
