What Happens in Vegas… Is Captured on Camera - a podcast by MIT Technology Review

The use of facial recognition by police has come under a lot of scrutiny. In part-three of our series, host Jennifer Strong takes you to Sin City, which actually has one of America’s most buttoned-up policies on when cops can capture your likeness.

Albert Fox Cahn, Surveillance Technology Oversight Project
Phil Mayor, ACLU Michigan
