USE IN WISCONSIN

WEST ALLIS, Wis. (CB S58) -- Your vacation photos on Facebook may have wound up in facial recognition software used by police without your knowledge.

A national investigation found 47 police departments in Wisconsin, and nearly 2,000 across the country, have used this software created by Clearview AI.

West Allis police said one of their employees used the software as part of a free trial last year.

Deputy Chief Chris Marks said they didn't make any arrests off the program and don't rely on it for investigations.

However, a national investigation found some departments didn't even know their employees were using it at all.

"When you upload your photos to social media, you're not intending -- I guess most people aren't intending for that to be used to train a facial recognition dragnet," said Buzzfeed Senior Technology.

READ THE REST and do research on your own.

This type of data gathering at taxpayers' expense and without knowledge is INAPPROPRIATE.  INAPPROPRIATE. INAPPROPRIATE.
