We’ve talked about the use of facial-recognition software in places like China, where the technology can send you a fine if you jaywalk, or take demerits off your “personal credit score” but yesterday we found out that Amazon is selling facial-recognition software to law enforcement!

Nikolas Badminton talks to Charles Adler at CKNW on this and more.
