For or against facial recognition?
The police want to use facial recognition in train stations.
- Yes, security first
- Only with a judge's authorisation
- No, it's mass surveillance
What's at stake: It can help find suspects, but it also analyses every passer-by. The question is where to set the dial between security and privacy.
The left's argument
Facial recognition watches every passer-by and makes more mistakes about minorities.
The centre's argument
Reserved for serious cases, with a judge's authorisation and for a strictly limited time.
The right's argument
It's an effective tool to find suspects and prevent deadly terrorist attacks.
