Виждам, че във Facebook се питат кой придружава и пази Митрофанова. Използвайки PimEyes за разпознаване на лицето, откриваме един съвпадащ резултат. След това, чрез Amazon Rekognition, потвърждаваме, че става въпрос за един и същ човек.

“Amazon claims the FBI’s use of its Rekognition image and video analysis software does not violate its mortarium on sales of facial-recognition technology to US law enforcement agencies, because it only ever applied to police forces when conducting criminal investigations.”

“Amazon previously pledged to indefinitely ban police from using Rekognition — but with some loopholes. It didn't pause selling the service to government agencies, however, or to third-parties that may then provide the technology to cop shops.”

Although ICE has previously stated it does not have a direct contract for Amazon’s Rekognition facial analysis tool, leaked documents and reports from groups like the ACLU indicate that Amazon has actively marketed this technology to ICE for real-time surveillance and identification.

Amazon Rekognition Face Liveness now returns Feedback Codes

AWS now tells you WHY their face-scanning AI thinks you're a bot. "Try again with better lighting" feedback—because nothing says premium cloud service like debugging why a camera can't see your face. At least the error messages are free?

JEFF BEZOS: Not content to surveil his own employees, Bezos provides ICE and Palantir with major cloud infrastructure through Amazon Web Services. He’s also pitched ICE the “Rekognition” facial recognition tool, which in testing was found to have major racial bias.

Amazon Rekognition Face Liveness now returns Feedback Codes
Amazon Rekognition Face Liveness now returns Feedback Codes that help customers understand why a liveness check received a low score and how users could retry successfully. The codes are returned in the GetFaceLivenessSessionResults API response, and they identify the specific conditions that contributed to the low score, such as poor lighting, face obstruction, closed eyes, or low video quality. Customers can surface these codes to their end users who can then make targeted corrections and retry with confidence. A single session can return multiple Feedback Codes at once, allowing users to resolve all contributing issues in one retry. This feature is especially useful in identity verification onboarding, re-authentication flows, and accessibility scenarios. Amazon Rekognition Face Liveness verifies that the person in front of the camera is a real, live human (instead of a photo, video replay, mask, or deepfake) through a short, guided selfie-video check. It returns a confidence score, a reference image for face matching, and session audit images.  Rekognition Face Liveness is available in US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland), Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Mumbai, Malaysia, Thailand), and South America (São Paulo). To learn more, visit the https://docs.aws.amazon.com/rekognition/latest/dg/face-liveness-programming-api.html and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/rekognition/latest/dg/face-liveness-faq.html.

Чрез руската търсачка за лицево разпознаване Findclone намерих профила ѝ във vk и още профили на нейни приятелки, в чиито снимки тя присъства. Уверих се, че е тя, като сравних снимки чрез Amazon Rekognition. От vk взех три имена и дата на раждане и през лийкове стигнах до данните на семейството ѝ.
