Reply to comment by Antnee83 in BBC News: Clearview AI used nearly 1m times by US police, it tells the BBC by Gigglemind

So are you also against releasing a suspects pictures on the news which can lead to tips and visits from the police even on incorrect identifications?

Because this is no different.

I sure am! You know how many lives are ruined by being thrown up on the "suspect" wall? No one cares that they didn't do it, all that matters is that their photo was in the news with the words "probably did a crime??" Underneath

Yet countless people have been caught this way and has saved lives from posting pictures of the actual perpetrators to get a crowd source answer of who it is.

Crowd source? Like Reddits hunt for the Boston bombers...

Gonna need some actual numbers on that or else who can say.

Theyre probably not worth the damage, long term.
