Strengthen regulation of government use of racially biased and unreliable face recognition technology, which can screen, identify, and surveil people from a distance. Prevent the use of face surveillance to track or monitor every person in the Commonwealth and their activities in public places; require law enforcement to obtain a search warrant before conducting a facial recognition search; establish due process protections for people who are identified using facial recognition; and establish a centralized system for law enforcement agencies to access this technology and ensure accountability.
