Joining PBS NewsHour to Discuss Facial Recognition Apps

An invitation to join PBS NewsHour to discuss the privacy implications of facial recognition apps was enough for me to push aside a lingering illness. I spoke with Amna Nawaz about public concerns with FaceApp, a photo filter app that allows users to transform their features by adding or removing wrinkles. I address questions about how images of people’s faces could be used, the (non)-implications of the app being based in Russia, and encourage viewers to reach out to allegedly concerned lawmakers to push for federal privacy legislation.
