Today the federal Government Accountability Office (GAO) finally
published its exhaustive report on the FBIâ??s face recognition
capabilities. The takeaway: FBI has access to hundreds of millions

fact from the publicâ??in flagrant violation of federal law and agency
policyâ??for years.

An industry-dominated â??multistakeholder processâ?? convened by the
Commerce Department recently produced a set of voluntary privacy â??best

and vague language that companies could engage in all sorts of
practices that would violate the public's privacy expectations, while
still claiming to comply with these guidelines.
