+1 Police Force. No to Facial Recognition Software

The Police Force: City of Los Angeles

The position on facial recognition software:

  •  Officers & detectives are prohibited from using outside facial recognition platforms in their investigations
  • They can continue to use  Los Angeles County Regional Identification System which relies on criminal booking photos
  • Los Angeles Times reports LAPD has used facial recognition software 30,000 times since 2009

The catalyst: Officers had used third party familial recognition software without permission
