The Science of Surveillance - Facial Recognition Technology

Welcome to Your Community Science Class! On our upcoming episode we are continuing to look at the Science of Surveillance, in this case focusing on Facial Recognition Technology,

The degree of surveillance each of us is under is astounding.  From the food we eat, to where we drive, shop, travel to what we buy, how much we spend, what we watch on tv, our emails, where we surf on the internet, all banking transactions, all transactions in general, all purchases, whether with cash, debit or credit are under surveillance.

Facial recognition technology assures that everyone is identifiable and identified.  There are few places to hide in the West in today's global society. The new bounty hunters use FRT compared with billions of faces recorded worldwide.  Age progression and super computers make this possible.  The days are quickly coming where those who are considered fugitives will have to go completely off the grid.  Hiding in plain sight won't be possible.

Backflash technology assures that items concealed in one's vehicle or on one's person are immediately identifiable

Drones the size of insects assure that activities inside and outside of buildings can be easily monitored.&
