This is a screenshot from a #ClearviewAI facial recognition usage report from the St. Johns County, FL Sheriff's Office.

In this 61 page report, the most common reason given for a scan appears to be for suspected "retail theft/shoplifting."

The app could supposedly scan a face and, in just seconds, surface every detail of a person’s online life: their name, social media profiles, friends and family members, home address, and photos that they might not have even known existed.
