Amazon has been quietly selling its facial recognition system to US police forces, marketing it for bodycam use

The Verge has an interesting take on this. https://www.theverge.com/2018/5/23/17384632/amazon-rekognition-facial-recognition-racial-bias-audit-data

The article points out that Amazon has NOT submitted their system for public testing, which more often that not finds recognition fails (and false positives increase) for minorities and women.

Not a good sign.
