Just want to point out that it is incredibly difficult to get two lawyers to agree on the text of anything, let alone 100+
obsessed with this whole situation. the cia gave him how many gold bars for a fake spy program? “history of lying” to them including about where he went to school? what is going on over there?
Apparently it’s more dishonest to write about facial-recognition code embedded in software distributed to tens of millions of people than it is to embed it there in the first place.
NEW: The ACLU is suing Florida police over the arrest of a Fort Myers man who was ID'd by faceprint and accused of attempting to lure a child. He was 300 miles away during the crime.
I'm not a tech exec so maybe I'm missing something, but I still don't understand why Meta would spend precious engineering time writing and shipping code for a feature they say "does not exist” www.wired.com/story/meta-r...
Institutions are flawed (often in ways that feel unfixable) but I also understand the grief + horror you feel when you see *your* deeply flawed institution get lobotomized and turned into a zombie of itself
Meta was quietly shipping face-recognition code as part of the mobile app needed for its smart glasses even as it publicly said it's still “thinking through” whether to add the feature. WILD scoop from @dell.bsky.social and (newly back at WIRED!!) @dmehro.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/meta-s...

The report about the surveillance at Madison Square Garden and other James Dolan properties is insane and towards the bottom, there’s a reveal that this kind of surveillance will also be used against fans during the World Cup

We reported earlier this year on Meta's plans to roll out a facial recognition feature in its smart glasses and the company said it was "still thinking through options." Now Wired discovers that the code to do it is already in Meta's AI app: www.wired.com/story/meta-s...
The ACLU is suing two Florida police departments over the arrest of a Fort Myers man in a child-abduction case, saying officers treated a flawed face recognition match as a near-certain ID.
