"Walk into a shop, board a plane, log into your bank, or scroll through your
social media feed, and chances are you might be asked to scan your face. Facial
recognition and other kinds of face-based biometric technology are becoming an
increasingly common form of identification.
The technology is promoted as quick, convenient and secure – but at the same
time it has raised alarm over privacy violations. For instance, major retailers
such as Kmart have been found to have broken the law by using the technology
without customer consent.
So are we seeing a dangerous technological overreach or the future of security?
And what does it mean for families, especially when even children are expected
to prove their identity with nothing more than their face?"
