Gehan Gunasekara, the convenor of the Foundation’s surveillance working group, has provided a couple of comments recently about the OPC’s report on use of live facial recognition in supermarkets.

The first interview was with RNZ’s “The Panel” (Gehan’s segment is first up), and the second is an op ed for Newsroom.
