I think the developer wants to make the use of video surveillance ubiquitous like in England, which will make our life more calm but less private.
but with the problem of privacy violations, England have developed some features like the surveillance system will automatically censor a room if it will be hit by the camera. I think the faceter will be opposite since its goal is to be more precise in surveillance.
Well, faceter is like an automatic app/system that will reveal the identity of a person that was captures by the camera. This project is really worth something to support with due to it gives us a direct answer about the data of the person.
I am just wondering if faceter will not invading our privacy if ever we are recorded in that cctv even if we didn't do anything. So maybe there will be a possibility that they will know all our details.
Do you have Facebook, Gmail, Instargam etc?
These platforms collect your data and then sell it to the advertiser, this is a threat to privacy.
Faceter is the opposite, images will be converted into numbers, data matrices, and then divided into parts so that nobody knows what data is being processed. The actual result will be known only by the camera owner not the company.
if the system really protects these video datas as you mention then this is really to appreciate, although you can not compare the security of data with facebook, gmail and instagram: because in these social media platforms you just post what u want, but here u get cam 24 hours.
