UK government announces tender for live facial recognition technology
Briefly

The UK government has issued a £20 million tender for tech companies to provide live facial recognition technology to police forces, amid significant human rights concerns.
Despite the pursuit of facial recognition technology by the UK government, there remains no legal framework governing its use, raising alarms about privacy and discrimination.
This tender comes after a parliamentary debate highlighted concerns over facial recognition's implications, prompting calls for a regulatory framework to safeguard citizens' rights.
The push for facial recognition technology continues despite ongoing debates in parliament about its ethical implications and the absence of legal safeguards.
