Personally I think that these tools are only as good as their user and also they aren’t nearly as capable as they want us to think they are, be it due to weird gaps in their coverage, insufficient photo or video resolution, or simply too much parsable days I think these surveillance networks have notable holes in them. That’s not even getting into how the software side of things may be insufficient, biased, or simply broken.

Agreed, just didn’t want to speculate all that much on back end shit that I can’t see. But yeah the match regardless of accuracy thing is almost certainly happening on statistics alone, I know damned well I’ve met folks with faces very similar to my own since I don’t facially differ all that much from the rest of the North American Scottish diaspora and that’s just from personal experience though funny enough I don’t get mistaken for other people because I am shorter than most other folks with similar faces to my own.
