In life, we all hate to remember a lot of passwords, and biometric technology provides a worry-free and efficient alternative. Since Apple's use of fingerprint recognition technology on the iPhone, the pace of biometrics in the consumer space has significantly accelerated. However, biometrics are not necessarily as secure as we think, and it may also pose privacy issues. For biometrics, the Wired website interviewed several technical and legal experts.
In the future, when you shop, it might be like this: At the checkout, you don't have to worry about wallets or mobile phones, but let the cashier scan your ears. “The ears are unique,†​​said CEO of Descartes Biometrics and CEOMicheal Boczek. “It’s stable and long-lasting, that is, it’s very small in people’s lives. The same is true for fingerprints, and facial recognition is not so reliable. ""
Of course, this technology may not be used quickly and widely. “Biometrics is a very complicated thing,†says Woodrow Hartzog, a law assistant professor at the University of Samford. “They may be good because they are very safe. It’s hard for someone’s ears, eyes, pace, or other to identify individual’s uniqueness. Things. But if the biometric data is blacked out, you are finished. You can't change one ear."
Alvaro Bedoya, a law professor at Georgetown University, talks about the safety of biometrics from another angle. "Passwords are inherently private. The whole point of it is that you won't tell anyone," he said. Biometrics are inherently public. "If I see you, I know what your ears look like, and I can take a high-resolution photo from a distance. If we drink together, you leave your fingerprint on the glass, then, I You know what your fingerprint looks like." The law enforcement agencies have a very clear understanding of this. The FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and the local police are actively using biometrics. Micheal Boczek said the police are interested in ear recognition software, which is currently being tested by the Washington State Police Department.
Another problem with biometrics is that personal data is abused because the laws are still not sound. Last year, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration of the United States convened a number of trade associations and public interest groups to try to draft a code of conduct on face recognition technology. As a result, everyone in the public interest group left before the end of the meeting. “Before using facial recognition technology to identify an individual, even if you have nothing to do with it, you should get their permission. All trade associations have adopted a disapproval attitude,†AlavaroBedoya said. The position goes far beyond the standard practice."
In 48 states in the United States, identity recognition in public places is legal, and software photography does not require people's consent, and Texas and Illinois state that this identification is not for commercial use. Sometimes people do agree, but it is implemented in a way that I don't know, hidden in the unread terms of service. “In terms of legal provisions, these consents are generally considered legal. Companies use this method to obtain your permission to collect, use and share your personal information,†Woodrow Hartzog said.
Take Facebook as an example. More than 250 million photos are uploaded to Facebook every day. The company's lab has said that it has the "largest face database" and the driving force behind it is the facial recognition system. AlavaroDedoya said that in the future, when people go shopping, the merchant will immediately know who you are, where you live, how much income, and so on, and the data comes from Facebook. Currently, some brick-and-mortar stores have used facial recognition software to identify repeat customers, or to issue a warning when a “discussed thief†enters the store.
