Summary: The following video goes over the implementation of facial recognition technology in public places, specifically casinos. Both the creators of the facial recognition technology and another person offering data ethics concerns are featured in this video, so there are both sides to the argument about privacy concerns using data ethics. This facial recognition technology is being rolled out in casinos where they identify bad actors and ban people from their properties. People flagged by the algorithm are asked to show ID to confirm their identity and are subsequently removed if they are a match. Some privacy concerns are what these companies who create facial recognition do with the technology. Additionally, who will they roll this technology out on can also create issues. For example, this technology may disproportionately effect people of color.
