In this article we will look at the major questions the facial recognition technology raises: how safe it is, why it is used, how it works, whether it is legal, and whether its advantages outweigh the threats it poses.
Today, CCTV cameras can identify and track you based on the unique characteristics of your face, body or movements, known as biometrics. Here's how to trick surveillance to protect your privacy.
Biometric mass surveillance means authorities, companies, unknown third parties know who you are, where you go, what you do, even how you feel. You can now have a say to ban this.
