I do not object to facial recognition as long as a rigorous screen on use is in place. Known paroled felons who are going about their business legally in conformance with their parole might allow us to parole far more people that an excess of punitive zeal keeps locked up. Each one of these would require a warrant and be limited to end of their parole. Once done, they are out of the net. They need to improve the competence of these types of camera on various racial subtypes to make sure the error rate is the same as the whiter groups to avoid selective over reach on these groups. Like all things with sharp edges, they can be used badly - as we see in China versus the Uighers as well as Tibetans. Sadly, we lack the power to meddle except via trade restrictions - which misses the crooked rulers and harms the Chinese people - for whom I have great respect.
