The Lockport Central School District said it activated the system on Thursday after meeting conditions set by state education officials, including that no students be programmed into the system's database.
The district originally planned to include certain students, citing the February 2018 attack in which expelled student Nikolas Cruz is charged with killing 17 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Those plans were scrapped amid privacy concerns raised by the New York State Education Department.
But even without the inclusion of students on the Lockport schools' "hot list," the New York Civil Liberties Union said facial recognition technology infringes on students' rights just by scanning their faces in search of a match.

China has over 3,000,000 (so I was told) of these facial recognition cameras and thousand of government employees monitoring (spying) on the people. It all started big time with the Uighur Muslim violence.
Hoodie sales to increase.
Not surprising with all the camera hanging around... traffic violation, now cameras designed to catch cell phone users while operating a vehicle, down town core police service.... welcome to surveillance society...

Current 4-yr-olds will have more competition for teacher time and fewer supports for 14 yrs until they graduate Gr 12 in 2033. Due to this, the improved graduation rate will now erode!

To have OHIP paid work done at LifeLabs you require a requisition.
