gollark: Technically, it's probably compliant with the law-as-written and probably law-as-intended.
gollark: The excuse for this sort of thing seems to be basically always "think of the children" and "terrorism".
gollark: > Clearview AI is a new research tool used by law enforcement agencies to identify perpetrators and victims of crimes.> Computer vision for a safer world> Clearview AI's technology has helped law enforcement track down hundreds of at-large criminals, including pedophiles, terrorists and sex traffickers. It is also used to help exonerate the innocent and identify the victims of crimes including child sex abuse and financial fraud.
gollark: This "clearview AI" thing they link seems worrying.
gollark: If it just makes small pixel-scale tweaks which aren't human-perceptible then it could probably be defeated by future face recognition stuff.
