| Description | François Picard welcomes Alexander Abdelilah, Investigative Journalist for Forbidden Stories who just published an investigative report on how the Iranian regime secretly acquired FindFace in 2019, a powerful facial recognition system developed by Russian company NTechLab. Mr. Abdelilah explores how this system operates both technically and politically. FindFace allows authorities to run recorded footage: from CCTV cameras, street recordings, or even social media videos, through an algorithm capable of matching a face in a crowd and tracing individuals who participate in demonstrations. | ||
