Recommendation
Something like facial recognition technology was created 100 years ago by a French police officer. Now, it’s become omnipresent and mostly unregulated.

This portfolio of illuminating articles compiled by Meher Ahmad, Adrian Chen, Chris Outcalt and Joy Shan for The California Sunday Magazine includes the viewpoints of people who use facial recognition technology, and how, and why.
