「硫酸男」スピード逮捕のウラで…実はJRが「顔認証カメラ」を導入していた
Don't notice if abused
"I can't reveal the station name, but some of the 5,800 surveillance cameras installed in the concourses of about 110 stations have Equipped with an authentication function, it has the ability to identify the face of a suspicious person even when wearing a mask.” (JR East PR)
Do you know that JR East has quietly introduced a "face recognition surveillance camera"? It is said that the faces of station users are matched in real time with the faces of registered criminal suspects and suspicious persons.
Photo by iStockIt was introduced in July in conjunction with the opening of the Olympics. As for the source of the facial data and the final destination of the information, he says, "I can't answer," but there is no doubt that it is the police.
On the night of the 24th of last month, a man who poured sulfuric acid on a man in Minato-ku, Tokyo fled from JR Shinagawa Station on the Shinkansen. The man was speedily arrested on the 28th, and it is believed that the face recognition surveillance camera was also used in this investigation.
If it helps the investigation, you might think it's fine. However, indiscriminate collection of facial images is not very pleasant. Hiroshi Mikami, an IT journalist, says:
"What worries me is that 'who is creating the face list based on what criteria' and 'how many days the collected data is stored' are unknown.
Similar surveillance camera regulations have begun in some countries and states in Europe and the United States. In Japan, on the other hand, there are no regulations yet, and there is no third-party organization that monitors data usage. Even if it is misused, you won't notice it."
