Biometric Technologies and Freedom of Expression 2021 First Published by ARTICLE 19 in April 2021 When bodies become data: Biometric technologies and freedom of expression 2021 First published by ARTICLE 19 in April 2021 ARTICLE 19 works for a world where all people everywhere can freely express themselves and actively engage in public life without fear of discrimination. We do this by working on two interlocking freedoms, which set the foundation for all our work. The Freedom to Speak concerns everyone’s right to express and disseminate opinions, ideas and information through any means, as well as to disagree from, and question power-holders. The Freedom to Know concerns the right to demand and receive information by powerholders for transparency good governance and sustainable development. When either of these freedoms comes under threat, by the failure of power-holders to adequately protect them, ARTICLE 19 speaks with one voice, through courts of law, through global and regional organisations, and through civil society wherever we are present.

This policy is motivated by concerns about the rapid and increased use of biometric technologies not only by the private sector but also by public authorities. Biometric technologies are being used to analyse the way people act, look, and express themselves in public and private spheres. Their use ranges from border patrol to unlocking a smartphone, but one thing is clear: their use is being normalised. These technologies have the power to change the way people act in public spaces and therefore risk the very existence of civic space, an essential pillar of democracy, that allows public participation and exercise of human rights. State or private actors who design, develop and deploy biometric technologies must do so using a human rights approach in order to protect individuals’ fundamental rights. In particular, ARTICLE 19 highlights the following concerns: • Increased mass surveillance of public spaces using biometric technologies, including facial recognition and emotion recognition, will undoubtedly create a severe chilling effect on freedom of expression and public participation. • States and the private sector are developing and deploying biometric technologies without considering the harm they may cause to people’s lives and how they might prevent people’s ability to exercise their human rights. This is very concerning as they can use these types of technologies in ways that are highly intrusive, violate the rights to right to freedom of expression and privacy and do not adequately protect personal data. • There is a severe lack of accountability. State or private actors have not put in place effective mechanisms for potential victims to claim remedies for violations of their rights. If, for example, people face discrimination as a result of the use of face recognition, it is unclear how this issue would be addressed and how and if any remedies will be provided. • Lastly, the availability of a particular biometric technology (or any technology) should not automatically justify its use. The design of the technologies means they are ripe for abuse, open to security breaches and indicate several biases. Rather than placing technology at the service of human beings or designing solutions that solve existing problems, the push to develop tools and products for their own sake is fundamentally flawed. For these reasons, ARTICLE 19 warns against the use of biometric technologies, especially on national security and counterterrorism grounds, without a sufficient legislative framework to protect human rights. We consider that a human rights-based 4 approach ought to be embedded at the start of the design and development of any technology. Therefore, we call for a moratorium on the development and deployment of all biometric technologies by both States and private actors until they can ensure the full protection of freedom of expression and full compliance with international human rights standards. This policy brief is divided into five parts. First, we outline key background information and terminology concerning biometric technology. Second, we outline all relevant international standards on freedom of expression applicable to biometric technology. This is followed by a section on how the use and abuse of these technologies obstruct people from exercising their human rights with a particular focus on how they prevent people from exercising their right to freedom of expression and information. We then provide two cases studies - one on how facial recognition limits freedom of expression and the other on how emotion recognition limits freedom of expression. Finally, we make a list of comprehensive recommendations directed at States, private companies, and all other relevant stakeholders. Summary of recommendations: 1. States should ban biometric mass surveillance 2. States should ban the design, development and use of emotion recognition technologies 3. Public and private actors who design, develop and use biometric technologies should respect the principles of legitimacy, proportionality and necessity 4. States should set an adequate legislative framework for the design, development and use of biometric technologies 5. Government authorities must ensure that the design, development and use of biometric technologies are subject to transparency and open and public debate 6. Transparency requirements for the sector should be imposed and thoroughly implemented by both public and private sectors 7. States should guarantee accountability and access to remedies for human rights violations arising from biometric technologies 8. The private sector should design, develop and deploy biometric systems in accordance with human rights standards. 5 Introduction Around the world, governments and private actors who use identification and verification systems increasingly rely on biometric data - from fingerprints and DNA samples to more advanced biometric technologies that aim to identify persons on the basis of their physical traits, behaviour or activities.1 Public and private actors now use these technologies in various settings for the real-time measurement and analysis of the way people look, sound, move and behave. These technologies are increasingly applied in areas such as crime and border control, advertising or marketing;2 they are a popular tool to unlock a smartphone, access an online bank account or even access physical and other online spaces.3 Their massive use is, however, not necessarily limited to the identification of people. It also results in profiling and categorising people based on age, gender, skin colour, surveilling what they are doing, with whom, how they are feeling and even how they are likely to behave in the future.

His father was a plumber and his mother was an accomplished pianist. His career began when he was promoted from a office boy to a rehearsal pianist at the Boston Opera House. As his desire was to write and perform “popular” music, he left the job in 1917 to become a pianist and song plugger in Boston with the Irving Berlin publishing company. In 1921, he moved to New York after getting married and started working for Jack Mills Inc. where he published his first song, Emaline.

    Quaker Times The Franklin Alumni Newsletter “Bringing Together Friends of Franklin” Vol. 23 Issue 1 Franklin High School Alumni Publication Fall 2016 Hall of Fame Honors Accomplished Alumni In May the Hall of Fame Celebration returned to Franklin. Nearly 150 alumni and friends toured the halls, viewed the new Hall of Fame Display and searched for tiles. And then the celebration began in earnest as guests entered the Commons to celebrate the induction of five alumni into the Franklin Hall of Fame. Students greeted everyone at the door and provided tours of the school. Board members registered guests. A soundtrack featuring the music of Al Hoffman and Kearney Barton – both inductees this year – played in the background along with a slide show featuring all of the inductees. Rhonda Smith Banchero, 91, served as emcee, graciously keeping the program moving. Sara Thompson, ’68, FAA&F President presented the annual report and introduced board members to the crowd. Board members were elected. Ed Almquist Student talent was a highlight featuring music that spotlighted the two musicians honored that night – duo sang an acapella Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo (written by Al Hoffman), followed by a solo performance of Louie Louie (sound engineered by Kearney Barton). But it was the presentation of the inductees that really topped the evening. Those honored were songwriter Al Hoffman ’21, sound engineer Kearney Barton ’49, orthopedist and medical educator Ed Almquist ’54, electric car advocate Steve Lough ’62, and actress Lori Tan Chinn ’66. Al was introduced by his great-nephew Rocky Friedman. (See his comments on page 22).
