The Minister for Justice wants to give Gardaí the ability to use Facial Recognition Technology (FRT).
A person’s face is permanently and irrevocably linked to a person’s identity. FRT treats our faces like license plates, matching facial features to a database of images.
FRT tracks and follows us wherever we go, undermining our rights to privacy, to protest, and to associate with others. FRT is known for its inability to correctly identify faces that are not white and male, due to inherent biases. So it also undermines our right to equality and non-discrimination.
Tell the Minister you do not consent to being tracked by FRT!
