Facial recognition technology could increase safety and security in schools
In her latest piece in The Hill, ALEC Policy Coordinator Anna Parsons writes that a ban of facial recognition technology in schools would be bad policy.
The case of Lockport City School District’s use of facial recognition technology is extreme. But, a blanket ban on the use of this technology in all schools in New York halts creativity and positive new uses of an emerging technology that could keep students and school staff safe and more secure.
