I’m talking about the first world, where arrests aren’t public data.
If it’s a spectacular failure (someone who doesn’t like at all like the criminal) he’ll be let go right away. If there’s a reasonable resemblance, it would be as if some person reported the guy manually to the police.
Why are all of these articles written under the premise that this software sends you automatically to jail? It’s just a first step in the vetting process.
