  width of nose, length of the jaw line etc

• Locating suspects in large social areas

5
Limiting Identity Theft

• Facial Scan at ATMs
• Computer scan to match credit card

6
Monitoring Employees at Work

• Is it right for employees to be skipping out on
  work but still getting paid?

• With the new advances in FR this wont happen

7
Ethical?

• How important is it for you to feel safe?

• Giving up some rights seems fair for the great
  protection we will receive from this new
  technology.

8
Reasons Against Facial Recognition
Invasion Of Privacy!!!

• Use by criminals

• Misuse by government

• Monitor employees at work

9
Use by criminals

• FR could be used to secretly track individuals

-Peoples whereabouts -Access to personal
information
10
Misuse by Government

• Is this really ethical?

• Would you be comfortable with the government
  knowing where you are at all times?

• The facial recognition system has not been fully
  proven to work and may not be reliable

• No current laws preventing misuse

Monitor employees at work

• In a negative way

• Could be used for job discrimination

• Companies would know what there employees do in
  there off time
• -Where they go
• -Who they hang out with

• Again, there are no laws preventing this kind of
  misuse

Food For Thought

• Do you think Monitoring people at work is
  ethical?

• Are there any other ways that Facial Recognition
  could be used? For example- A future world wide
  data base of everyone? Think Gattaca

• Do you think the trade-off of privacy for more
  security is worth it?
