Reply to comment by danger_davis in BBC News: Clearview AI used nearly 1m times by US police, it tells the BBC by Gigglemind

I don't think the issue is necessarily that they're not allowed to provide access (though, we shouldn't just assume they are), but that if they are allowed, whether that is something we want as citizens, and whether they have an obligation to allow us to opt out, at the very least.

The problem is that I want criminals to be caught but I don't want a police state hampering freedoms. Traffic cameras and pictures taken from open internet sources don't bother me. If they were snooping into my Google drive or Apple account without a warrant that is where I would be livid. But if I create a Facebook page with my face on the front photo I am not going to be upset when the government is able to see that photo. There is no expectation of privacy there.
