Facial recognition technology is, after all is said and done, probably illegal in any country that implements the protection of basic human rights into its national laws. If countries (including the USA) do not, it says enough of its own about them. Nor has the idea of (national) exceptionalism ever produced a more equal and/and fair society. AFAIK, not a single in all history.

For those who like to argue that such technology could be legalized when people (collectively) agree with its use through political consensus (aka "the people", through politicians, voted for it), there are good reasons for why basic human rights are defined as "inalienable". Regretfully, many countries have nonetheless ignored that fact, whenever it suited the personal interests of politicians and those that stand behind them in the shadows.
