Your Face Belongs to Us: The Secretive Startup Dismantling Your Privacy
Kashmir Hill
Your Face Belongs to Us was shortlisted for the Royal Society Science Book Prize 2024 and longlisted for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award 2023. What if you could be identified by anyone with just a blurry photo? When Kashmir Hill stumbled upon Clearview AI in 2019, a facial recognition platform with an alleged 98.6% accuracy rate, the implications were terrifying. But that was just the beginning. Clearview AI would quickly rise to the top, sharing its app with billionaires, law enforcement and even Hollywood actors. In this gripping true story, Hill dives deep into its shadowy journey, and explores how facial recognition technology is already a part of our everyday lives – and where it's going next.
