  1. “A six-month trial of live facial recognition (LFR) technology in London’s railway stations that cost more than £320,000 and almost 100 hours of police officers’ time led to one false match against a watchlist of suspects and no arrests.

    More than half a million faces were scanned between February and July this year in some of the capital’s busiest transport hubs during the British Transport Police (BTP) trial of the surveillance technology, which aimed to help catch offenders and people breaching court orders.

    A freedom of information document obtained by Liberty Investigates and shared with the Guardian shows that equipment hire and police staffing for the 18 deployments across the trial cost £320,786 and led to only one alert on a watchlist, which turned out to be an incorrect identification, also known as a false positive.

    Last month BTP announced it was extending the trial for a further four months and expanding the deployments to include London Underground stations. British Transport Police said that since the extension there had been three positive confirmed alerts of people who were subsequently confirmed to be complying with sexual harm prevention orders or other imposed court conditions.”

  6. Калькулятор с ключами: как чтение одного файла привело к компрометации публичного облака

    В статье разберем, как через LFR-уязвимость во внешнем сервисе облачной инфраструктуры удалось полностью скомпрометировать облако. Точкой входа стал вспомогательный калькулятор расчета тарифов, в котором нашлась возможность чтения произвольных локальных файлов. Из одной этой уязвимости выросла цепочка, которая в итоге привела к доступу к панели управления облаком под учетной записью с полными правами.

  8. Not sure what to make of this, and can't see any positives either - #MetPol nicked more people at #Carnival than last year, and although there were at least fewer #stabbings and #violence the amount of creeps and #ToxicMasculinity on the sidelines of this event have give the Old Bill a decent amount of #copaganda they will use to justify #LFR and other #surveillance throughout #London

    There's also nothing you can easily compare the event to, its not the same as a #festival that only privileged rich folk can afford as the whole site is (quite rightly) open to the general public throughout the event but I don't think there's anything like it anywhere else in Britain..
