This is an #EFF project, and it is good so far as it goes. It is meant to let one know what agencies are allowed to use facial recognition technology on the information that government agencies collect.
But even if your state's DMV isn't allowed to use facial recognition on your identification documents, various police agencies also have access to that information. Likewise, your kids' schools and colleges / universities, even state-run institutions, take photos and may have wide discretion with little or no oversight on how they get used.
And of course, this completely ignores the ways that non-public organizations and businesses may use facial recognition on data in their possession.- aab repeated this.
