Stratford to trial facial recognition policing in London

Original: british transport police facial recognition london

British Transport Police are set to trial live facial recognition at Stratford station in east London, following more than 4,500 reports of violence against women and girls in the Newham area. The scheme, reported by the Newham Recorder, would use cameras to scan passengers and flag those on watchlists. The plan is drawing attention over both safety benefits and concerns about privacy and surveillance in public spaces.

Why now: A new facial recognition trial in a busy London transport hub has sparked debate over public safety versus civil liberties.
