1 There are approximately 326 million people living in the U.S. About half of that number, represents the amount of people in the FBI’s Next Generation Identification Database. Wait - what is that?
2 Let’s take a step back. Living in the 21st century, we’ve all heard about fingerprint sensors - in fact, around 75% of the general population uses fingerprint recognition to unlock a device. In recent breakthroughs in technology, a new biometric system(a biometric system is the technology that measure physical features and/or behavioral activities) has arisen. Many of you are already familiar with it - facial recognition. Besides on the Xbox One and several smartphones, facial recognition is so promising that even the FBI has spent $1.2 billion …show more content…
Representative, Jason Chaffetz in a hearing acknowledged that, “...in a test the FBI conducted prior to deploying Next Generation Identification, roughly one in seven searches of the FBI system returned a list of entirely innocent candidates even though the actual target was in the database”. 10 years ago, facial recognition may have been inaccurate, but with a clear photograph, accuracy rates are over 99%, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This will lead to a more just and secure society, as criminals will be accurately identified. Facial recognition has a for sure future, as long as we remember to test scanners before releasing …show more content…
It isn’t that they want secrecy. It’s that they want control over what they share and what they don’t.” Many of you are wondering how privacy can exist if the U.S. doesn’t stop these biometric technologies. Here’s another note from our expert.
11 Insert interview”laws.” What existent laws give citizens control?Professor Woodrow Hartzog’s 31 page essay, he explains the Fair Information Practices (“FIPs”). These are laws that give us data privacy rights, like deleting and editing data, but it traps citizens now, unlike 30 years ago when it was first published. The reality is that we cannot use the same laws with technology as it evolves. We need to create laws that address today’s concerns, not concerns that appeared 30 years ago.
12 What concerns do we have and what do we changes do we want? From a local 30 person survey, about 80% of people said that they wanted to see facial recognition in the future. They also suggested changes for the future of biometric technologies ranging from accuracy and information security, to more rules governing the use of biometric data. It is no coincidence that the community input directly correlates to previously mentioned disputes.
