    Oh, that’s a relief. I thought the police would just buy the data from another company, that buys face data and runs recognition on it.

      The base problem is the lack of an US privacy Policy, which don’t exist. In the EU an invasive surveilling like this is only possible after an court order on investigated persons because of an crime, or in case of certain events where there is a high risk of an attack, but this decision never depends on the police themselves.
