Abstract

The aim of this article to identify and highlight limitations and challenges of the legal regulation of the use of facial recognition technology for surveillance purposes. The UN and the EU are seeking to develop robust human rights safeguards to regulate such practices, whereas civil society calls for a complete ban on it use for mass surveillance. The type of this technology makes it difficult to impose legal and democratic control over its lawful use and to prevent abuse. We conclude that the regulation of this area, no matter how restrictive, amounts to tacit approval of the mass use of this type of technology that opens the door to various ways of abusing human rights and freedoms, and whose justification from the perspective of the public interest is questionable.

Secondary title: Regulacija uporabe tehnologije prepoznave obraza – omejitve in izzivi s perspektive človekovih pravic
Secondary abstract: Namen članka je prepoznati in izpostaviti omejitve in izzive, povezane s pravno regulacijo uporabe tehnologije prepoznave obraza (FRT) za namene nadzora. Organizacija Združenih narodov in Evropska unija se zavzemata za razvoj zanesljivih ukrepov za zaščito človekovih pravic za regulacijo teh praks, medtem ko civilna družba zahteva njihovo prepoved. Zaradi vrste te tehnologije je težko uvesti pravni in demokratični nadzor njene zakonite uporabe in preprečiti zlorabe. Skleneva, da regulacija tega področja, ne glede na njeno restriktivnost, pomeni tiho odobritev množične uporabe te vrste tehnologije, ki odpira vrata različnim načinom zlorabe človekovih pravic in svoboščin, zaradi česar je s perspektive javnega interesa njena upravičenost vprašljiva.
