Newly leaked documents revealed the existence of the government's in-house facial recognition platform, coming soon to an ICE agent near you.

    Will they care / understand about false positives?

    Not likely.

      Remember 20 years ago when Wikileaks was telling us about all the false positives swept up in the War on Terror dragnet?

      Both Bush and Obama got reelected. No one at the federal level gives a shit.

      Imagine they would at the very least have some sort of double check procedure like a skin color chart they could reference if there was any question.

      As long as they kill p. of c., it’ll be deemed legal 🫡🤢

        Their “facial recognition” ends up just being a binary switch on a light detector

        Took me waaaaay longer than it should have to realize “p. of c.” means “people of color”.

        Still haven’t figured out if you’re censoring it, or if you think p. of c. is a faster way to abbriviate it.

        Either way, that “shorthand” is stupid, and you should just write it out.

          Folks who work in social justice will know the acronym “POC” but “p. of c.” I don’t usually encounter.

          Are we sure it’s not “prince of caspian?”

        I’m pretty sure ice is more diverse than every single protest against them.

      You don’t need to ask about likelihood. It’s already been shown they don’t: https://www.aclu.org/news/privacy-technology/more-than-a-dozen-wrongful-arrests-due-to-police-reliance-on-facial-recognition-technology
