Facial recognition CEO: software is not ready for use by law enforcement

You don't have to 'force' cops if the proper parameters and processes are laid out.

Moreover, though cops can bend and break rules, they're not idiots.

For example, at border crossing, a 'fact match' with a name simply could flag someone for an interview, and a background check to see if it's a certain person.

An arrest has to be made on some kind of reasonable grounds if a 'face match' is not considered reasonable grounds, border guards (and cops for that matter) are quite aware of that and know they can't make the arrest on that basis alone.

Except ICE doesn't abide by your rules. You have no rights when being questioned or investigated by them.

At least, that's the way they operate.

Now, if you take them to court, maybe you can get a reversal of their action against you. But you have to be a citizen or legal resident to do that, and you still have to suffer the consequences in the meanwhile.

Yes of course I agree and we should be wary; it's bonkers that the US does not have clear and definitive rules for how the rules/constitution applies to non-residents etc..
