This reminds me of that facial recognition shopping scene in Minority Report [VIDEO] Of course I thought this movie looked 100 years in the future, not 15
Read original comment ↗It doesn't call out advertisers directly but it does call out the Minority Report style ad serving. IANAL but sec. A: defines FRT as "comparing the facial features of a probe image with the features of images contained in an image repository (one-to-many search)." "Private Entity shall not use Face Recognition Technologies in Places of Public Accommodation" "John Anderton, you could use a Guinness right now!" style targeted advertising requires matching features of the face (eyes) to a repository to get the name.
