Half of Threatpost readers surveyed in a recent poll don t believe that consent realistically exists when it comes to facial recognition. The issue of biometrics consent came to the forefront again in December when the Department of Homeland Security unveiled a facial-recognition pilot program for monitoring public areas surrounding the White House. More than half of poll respondents said that they have negative feelings toward facial recognition due to issues related to privacy and security while 30 percent more said they have mixed feelings, understanding both the benefits and privacy concerns.
