Imagine that you are a pastor of an American megachurch. You need to track the attendance of your flock for spiritual and financial purposes, but your records are always inaccurate. How do you hook up your security cameras with face recognition technology?
As spooky as it sounds, a company called Churchix is marketing software that tracks faces in churches and adds their names to a database. And, no, the churches don’t tell their parishioners.
Abstract:
Legislation for opt-in face recognition is essential despite the protests of companies like Google and Facebook.
