Maryland Sen. Charles Sydnor, D-Baltimore County, has introduced the Facial Recognition Privacy Protection Act, regulating government use of facial recognition services. The proposed bill would require accountability reports on the use of facial recognition services, prohibit facial recognition use for certain purposes and would require disclosure of its use. Meanwhile, Alabama Sen. Arthur Orr, R-Decatur, introduced a bill prohibiting law enforcement from using facial recognition technology for ongoing surveillance and using results as the sole basis for arrest or establishing probable cause.
