London debates smart surveillance
The facial recognition technology used by London police marks a transformation in their methods of operation, aiding in the arrest of around 2,500 wanted individuals since the start of 2024, including suspects of assault and sexual offenses.

Despite the controversy, the police insist that the technology has unprecedentedly helped identify suspects and tighten control over crime.
