SB 29-18: Sticking a Middle Finger to Big Brother Act (Amended Version Passed)

[Blair]

This is an interesting bill- I broadly support efforts to regulate facial recognition software and think that society/political leaders have generally been asleep at the wheel in regulating them. But equally they're some parts of this bill that I'm quite unsure about- specifically the cost of a public buy back program.

Final vote time?

This might be more based on my own experience with policing in the UK but I worry that the police & law enforcement will always argue for more of it... so it starts off with a limited trial, then certain restrictions on its use & you end it with it being rolled out all together.

I'd be very wary of giving the police the power to use it.
