A big biometric security company in the UK, Facewatch, is in hot water after their facial recognition system caused a major snafu - the system wrongly identified a 19-year-old girl as a shoplifter.

That was a really garbage system then. Like disgracefully bad Fisher Price quality.
The reality is that there are more crap systems than really good ones out there. And there are as many algorithms and different ways of doing it as there are companies.
The system I developed was so good, even when we tried all kinds of shenanigans to trip it up, we just couldn’t do it.
Ay, there’s the rub. Almost no-one’s going to pay for the top-notch system, and will instead go for the lowest bidder.
